Lonnie,

I too have had thoughts about mounting a scope on an artillery lugers barrel. I thought that a two piece mount that would resemble a figure 8 as a cross section might work. A screw in the center of the eight would help clamp the two pieces together onto the barrel and the scope. I don't know about the stableness of such a scope. But I did not want to experiment by drilling and tapping because, if I failed, I did not want to screw up a good arty. But if strike me that I saw something like this in a gun magazine someplace. It was not specifically for a Luger.

I do not have good vision in my shooting eye and I thought that this would increase my shooting fun while hunting coyote and ground hog. The hunting of these critters is not a long distance shot. Shotguns are commonly used on coyote. And ground hogs are for fun plus the farmers will love you.
