Thanks John.

I'm still looking for the specific list on their web site as I have not been able to out think their search engine. Found all sorts of stuff to read about though... LOL. The one that rocked my boat though was:

a 9mm Springfield Armory model XD–9 Sub–Compact Luger pistol, with a 16–round magazine.

I'll keep looking. Long ago when I had no internet to speak of (only MILNET) and had to read everything out of pages of stuff in hard copy I was of the understanding that all Lugers over 50 years old with had original shoulder stock lugs were legal with stocks--as the gun itself was a C&R and the stock by itself was not under the restrictions of the provisions. Reading Ed's comment I wondered if the rules had been updated to specify Carbines, Navy and Artillery as the "only" Lugers that could have stocks.
The link you provided to the 1981 letter was interesting as surely a 4" Luger should be just as legal with a stock as a Browning HP.

Bottom line for me though is not how close to the edge of the ice I can skate but how to make sure I'm in the safe zone.

Thanks again

Gary
