I have come across several pistols with bulged barrels it happens more that one would think I have a revolver in .455 Webley that appears to have had rust in one area of the barrel it ringed the barrel and there is a bulge you can feel..... I got lucky I purchased a .455 Colt barrel that had wrench marks on the out side from bubba's removal attempt.... bore was excellent .... I turned it down into a liner and when time permits I will bore out the barrel and re-line it.... This luger could be brought back to life.... I would say it may have had some sort of bore obstruction and or cartridge case failure as it may have blown out the extractor since this is missing...... Barrel could be sent out and be relined..... also the owner could see if he can come up with another barrel and extension so he could at least use it as a shooter in the meantime.... so not being that well versed with the earlier lugers ... will a P08 barrel extension inter-change with this?
