Looks quite good. The barrel length should be 4 inches right?
I tried to do something that perhaps isn't working well. I downloaded the photos and tried to measure the barrel length by measuring the barrel length and the length of the frame (in pixels) creating a ratio and multiplying by the known length of the frame. The start of the barrel is about 2 mm ahead of the edge of the side plate.
Each time I do this I get a barrel length of less than 4 inches, more like 3 5/8 to 3 7/8.
I also sized the image on my screen to 1:1 and just placed a post war commercial Luger next to the image. This Luger has a 3 7/8 barrel. The barrel length and the image matched.
I thought all wartime barrels were 4 inches or longer. Or is my analysis technique flawed?
