Hi @Doubs, you are right, as usual!
All guns in 9 luger had to be rechambered in 9x21 because of a law of 1975 made all military calibers forbidden for civilians (also 30-06 e.g.). So all the collectors had to rape the chamebers or hand over the guns to Police.
We have to wait until feb 2022 to have 9x19 free again.
What about the 7229 in the frame? Any other info about the punches?
"Lugers made in 1918 would have been zeroed at 50 meters"
Are you sure about this? I assume this kinds of weapon were made for short distances, 15 meters or few more 'cause the short barrel, and zeroed at 25.
Anyway I'll follow your tip, thanks.
