Miles,

The cannon of an early, short frame Luger will not function on a 1914 or later Luger frame without modification. The 1914 and later frames are reinforced at the back. The back of the rails on the cannon that engage the frame have a different profile (more rounded) to accommodate the thicker reinforced area. The earlier cannon rails can be filed to match the later profile.
