Complete Restoration of Luger Carbine

Conny · 12-23-2006, 11:46 AM

Gentlemen, other than the obvious differences between the Carbine and standard PO8 (barrel, sights, stock, etc), are the internals the same. If so, I need to start looking for parts now. I'm glad you have a parts list posted. Is there a source for these parts or is it all eBay, Gunbroker, GunsAmerica and world-wide searching? Are there still NOS parts available?

I have heard the names of Mike Krause, John Martz and Gale Morgan before. Don't remember where or when but the names are familiar.

I have 2 photos of Carbine frames. The front slotted extension are of different lengths. Is there a reason for this? Is it possible to discern a date of possible manufacture from this or serial #55029?

Please be patient and understanding of my ignorance and stupid questions. I joined this sight to learn from the knowledgable and the experts. Thank you.
