guns3545,
Thanks for your explanation, very interesting.
It prompted me to measure my 06 Waffenfabrik Bern which dates to 1930 according to Walters Luger Book. Length of the frame is 131mm , so clearly the Swiss were aware of the problem. My question is, when did the Swiss lengthen the frame , in 1918 when they began manufacturing or later ?
My apologies if this should be in a separate thread, I'm not certain how to do that.
