Hi Guys,
To bring you up to date, I have almost completely re-made all of the models that were used in my Luger assembly.
I had been forced into downloading someone else's models from the internet to complete my assembly, I got these off one of the web sites that I have used before.
Unfortunately 99% of the stuff I used was incorrect. I only found this out when I bought a full set of "cleaned up" drawings from John Sobato (of this forum). To cut a long story short, it has taken me until now from my last post on this forum to remodel virtually everything.
I am going to make 3 different variants of this gun and render them in one image. I will let you see the finished article when it is done.
Now that I have at last got a "sound" standard model with a 4" barrel, I intend making a 6" version (not the Naval one as I cannot find any details of the adjustable rear sight anywhere) and an artillery version made from the barrel drawings that Rich B. very kindly sent me.
I have the barrel already modelled, but I am short of some parts e.g. drawings of the dovetailed sight base, the adjusting toggle, details of the elevation spring and assembly, etc.
Does anyone have these details on drawings in their collection. I would be most grateful for a copy, if you wouldn't mind.
Thank you to all for your help and support.
Regards,
Dave (9x19)
Footnote: John Sobato - Your cleaned up drawings have been my saviour. I cannot thank you enough! Anyone in need of readable drawings should contact John without hesitation. Best $25 I have spent!
Vlim - thank you for the drawings, I will add them to my collection for construction in my modeller, right after I finish the artillery Luger and butt stock. Ah, that is another subject I need help with, does anyone have drawings detailing the metalwork of the butt stock to gun frame connector mechanism?
