Shoulder Stock Law ???

John Sabato · 10-22-2001, 09:14 AM

without benefit of input from others. Having worked a couple of years in metal manufacturing engineering, and many years as gunsmith, I introduced this theory in a long ago Luger Forum discussion that I believe was started by Ted Green (most likely before we moved the forum's presence out of Taiwan).

I have never seen any photos of an original Luger manufacturing production line, but often wondered about what the process looked like. The stock lug is one of the few areas that seems logical, or even practical, for holding a "raw" frame in a milling jig... I think it would be one of the first features to be produced by the milling process, because it would simplify all the manufacturing operation to follow it...

regards,
