45 ACP Luger model that you want the most

Well, gee, since you're askin', Eugene...I'd like one of each. and a 4" P.08 as well. If I had to pick one, it'd be the Baby, for a carry piece (depending on its dependability). If their reliability of function is not improved over original, then a Navy.

OK, so much for champagne tastes combined with kool aid wallet.

This will be a huge project if it gets off the ground--not necessarily huge profit for all involved, unless you count the satisfaction from achieving this most prodigious goal. If it takes more than you and a couple of great machinists, give or take some outsourcing, then I'd be up for periodic/extended trips to your place to work with you if you can use the services of a very experienced fabricator who can MIG and TIG and, moreover, has a feel for mechanical systems the Luger incorporates. My pals include a couple of engineers, several certified welders, and even another fabricator who gunsmiths on the side.
The company I worked for closed its doors a year ago, and I've been unemployed ever since, so my schedule is flexible to say the least. And my potential retirement would roughly coincide with your proposed production schedule. Give a holler if you need an extra hand!
