This one instance in particular that clearly states the intentions of the exemptions. You have to have the proper Luger to match up with the proper stock. If you have a stock and do not have the corresponding Luger to go with it, it is not exempt and therefore illegal.
So I stand by my statement that owing a Luger stock for which you do not have the proper corresponding model Luger, and you also own short barreled Luger(s) or other models of Lugers for which the stock is not correct, you have no exemption. Therefore the stock is illegal to own because it demonstrates "constructive intent" to create a SBR regardless of whether you ever attach it to one of the short barreled Lugers.

This was always my understanding, but I have been wrong many times before.
