Strange Arty wood stock...

RGMCE · 07-14-2008, 10:25 PM

Judging from the stock lug iron configuration I don't believe it's for a LP.08 Artillery. Have you tried fitting it to a P.08 stock lug ? The crude fit of the beat up iron to wood suggests a cobbled up commercial stock with irons meant for another military pistol. Not a C96. A Bergmann perhaps ? I'm out of my field here and defer to those specialists. Another source would be Anthony Vanderlinden's book on holsters & pistol stocks. It is indeed a strange animal ! Regards, Dick McE.
