Does anyone turn (machine) Luger barrels?

Thanks for all the replies.
I'm interested in a 5 inch barrel, and perhaps no taper (not a true bull barrel, but simply straight).

The integral front sight isn't really an issue, as a slightly undersized collar (for the front sight),
heated and then slipped onto the barrel (with carefully hidden silver solder) works well on my hunting rifles (like the 500 Jeffery).

I'll speak to a couple of machinists I know and see what they tell me.
