To all regarding the Luger blueprint CD. Having failed to get a response from Frank Rial after multiple attempts, I have begun to make Hi-resolution digital copies of the drawings mentioned above (they are dated 1913) so that I will not be reselling Frank Rial's work without his permission.

This is a very time consuming process since the paper copies contain some stains and stray marks that have to be digitally erased, and must actually be made in two passes due to the size of the pages and then the two images must be digitally joined to include an entire print.

This CD will also contain more drawings and blueprints that have been supplied to me from several sources. I have been working on this in my "spare" time and unfortuntely I don't have much of that... I apologize for the long delay... especially to Wes who has been extremely patient, but since this is a not for profit venture, I have no choice but to use only my spare time.

Those of you with an immediate need for a specific Luger blueprint can contact me via private message and we can work something out in the interim until the full set of prints can be made available.
