Curio status of Artillery Stock

mrerick · 05-25-2010, 11:03 AM

I recently purchased a 1917 DWM Artillery Luger. It didn't have the shoulder stock.

I checked the ATF regulations which mention the following as a curio:

- - - - -

Luger, German model 1914, Artillery model pistol, mfd. by DWM or Erfurt, having chambers dated 1914 –1918, bearing Imperial German military proofmarks & accompanied by original, German mfd., artillery type, detachable wooden shoulder stocks.

- - - - -

Does this mean that addition of a reproduction shoulder stock will change the status of the Luger to a NFA firearm (no longer a Curio permitted under the class 03 license)?

Would addition of an original shoulder stock not serialized to the Luger be permitted?
