An unexpected occurrence...

The 'winner' of the auction for the 8" Numrich barrel offered the barrel to me, and of course I accepted.

Now I'm somewhat at a loss...It's 30 cal, and I don't have a 30 cal artillery Luger, so I could go that way (I have a cut-down Luger artillery barrel with intact rear sight base that I could bore out and sleeve over the Numrich barrel)...Or I could use it to make a 30 cal Walther 'artillery P-38'...

I bought two 30 cal 'pulls' to use for 30 cal barrel replacements [Win M-70 & Rem M700] so I don't really need to use it for a 'blank'...

I already have a 13" 30 cal barrel ready to turn into a Luger 'Buntline', so I don't need it for that...

I've kind of run out of WW II pistols to turn into artillery whatevers...

How best to make use of this windfall???...
