Default Very rare "new" variation

Who knew there was a Hong Kong variation in ODG built by the world famous "Elvin" WaffenFabriken:

You have never seen a squirt gun before?

You neglected to show the top so we know the year of manufacture (but I guess it could be a commercial?) and you didn't mention the caliber? Full disclosure please. ( )

"Elvin"?! I think that's a chipmunk's model. The trigger looks smooth but probably has a long take up.

I think the bore gauge is H2O.

That's what makes it so interesting - you'd think it was military with the ODG color, yet it has no chamber date. It does have provision for the shoulder stock though.

Guess that one is legal in California, so far.

Is there a Navy or Artillery version? Can we get a closeup of the stock lug?

Would a detachable stock make it not legal in California? It also appears be have fixed and not removable magazine.

No worry about that particular model doubling when you pull the trigger, eh?

The finish also looks waterproof and rustproof!

Great fit on those original grips!

I'm a little worried about the checkering on the takedown lug. Please check to make sure it is not mismatched.

Mismatched or not, I would like to have one of those

Well, I have this one for at least 49 years, it was I believe my first Luger. Sadly it doesn't work anymore (deactivated? ) and in my foolish youth I also refinished it.

I wish I had even one of the dozens of Luger squirt guns I went through as a kid.
Seems like I had a new one every other week in the summer.
Day-glo green was my favorite color.

No million dollar chip on the LH grip either! My only complaint is the trigger is kind of mushy, but its dead nuts accurate at 7 feet!

Here's the stock lug:
