Quick Question.....

I noticed in the PIC that the Luger has apparently been rechambered for a .357 MAGNUM no less (resting on that box of ammo).

Can 'ya tell me how much of a task it was to re-chamber it and modify the mags??? Also - why you didnt step all the way up to a .44 MAGNUM???

NOW - THAT BEING SAID.... IN NOW IN ALL SERIOUSNESS, do you think it would be possible to rechamber a Luger for the .38 Super cartridge? I know the breechface, mags, barrel dia, etc. should be OK as unmodified - but I've always wanted to try a Luger in this caliber (and the factory DID make several in 38 SUPER!). Thoughts???

(This note should stymie Frank for a bit...)
