OK, forget the asking price...he's a dreamer...
Let's assume that this "Luger" is functional...Everything works like it should...
Now let's try to actually shoot it...We'd need a pretty good load...A 'whopper'...Just to move all that steel hanging in the wind out there...
Or...Maybe all that steel wouldn't move, relatively...
Maybe we'd feel the grip frame traveling forward, instead of the barrel traveling backward...
Now, how would you hold it? Stocked or not, you'd need to support that mass of steel to hold it anywhere on your target...Do you hold the barrel itself with your off hand??? A Luger carbine has a fore-end fastened to the grip frame...Your off hand doesn't move in relation to your trigger hand...With this gun, your two hands would be in motion to each other...Kind of a 'pumping' motion...That can't contribute to accuracy...
I wonder if a Wal-Mart White Box load would even exit the barrel...Gotta be a lot of friction in that length...Maybe it would just make a 'bloop' noise and fall out on the ground...
...Fascinating...
(Attaching the images because...well, we gotta save this!)
Edit: I asked seller a question...
"Hello! I think GunBroker put one too many zeroes in the price...But could you state what caliber it is???...A close-up shot of the front sight would be appreciated as well...Thank You!"
I think a full-length Schnabel fore-end (with extended fore-end brace) and a true carbine stock would look really nice on this "Luger"...Fore-end all the way to the front sight band...Some modest checkering on butt-grip & fore-end...Ditch that POS board stock...
