Guys,
Randall Gibson (on page 36 in his book on HK Lugers) states when discussing 150 mm barrels that :
"... A handful of Krieghoff commercial examples with this naval lenth barrel has been examined. Generally, they are P Codes in the 5 digit serial group. Proofing is the early commercial Crown N. Without exception, the caliber is 9 mm Parabellum...".
With passing time and more HK guns reported after the book came out, does anyone know if Gibson 'reversed' himself on the 9 mm versus 7,65 mm issue regarding such 6" barrels ? Did he acknowledge 7,65 mm barrels as being factory-optioned ?
