Thanks Orv for passing this info on to the forum...
and I totally agree that there are no regulations that prohibit the manufacture of ANY type of handgun stock by BATF. It is the possession of both a stock and Luger with a stock lug WITHOUT an appropriate NFA tax stamp ($200.00) where the criminal action takes place. Any exceptions to this rule are published on the ATF Curio & Relic (C&R) list that is available on their website.
You could personally legally own a whole garage full of Luger stocks if you don't own a Luger with a Stock Lug. No taxes or registration is required.
And yes, it would be wise of anyone selling a Luger stock to stipulate the conditions for legal use of it, but there really isn't any prohibition on selling them without doing this either... Caveat Emptor! (Buyer Beware)
The caution for Members and Lurkers of the Lugerforum is Know what is legal before you do it! and don't assume anything where ignorance of the law could lose you your right to own a firearm FOREVER because of an unintentional violation.
Thanks again,
John Sabato
