Another One Of Erics' Dumb Questions?

cirelaw · 08-31-2012, 10:28 PM

Did there ever have a scope for hunting with a Luger Carbine or for any other model? I say a picture somewhere with a scope mounted on a long barrel. It woud be interesting the luger mount!

Hi,

A friend of mine has mounted a "ZF41" on an ari - luger.
Looks nice, but nothing to shoot with ....

regards

Eric,

What book did this pic come from?

Also, if a Luger can have a scope, then it should also have a suppressor, as in lower pic!

Here is an example of a LP08 with the ZF41 scope in a custom mount like Otto mentioned.

Thats great! I wonder if one ever mounted on a carbine as we know they were used for hunting! A different configuration! Nice work Ron! That is way cool! It must be great for target Compedition!!

Another question if I may ask; Is there a way to fit a silencer/suppressor to a luger without threading the front barrel ?

Hello,

the police in the Weimar time used a barrel cap for
cleaning the P08. I had seen a silencer put on a luger
that way.

I've also seen some 4" barrelled lugers with removable front sight bases that screwed off to reveal the thread barrel underneath. See photo on page 363 of "Lugers at Random". TH
