Welcome to the forum, AJ. Lugers in this configuration are generally referred to as carbine models (Arties have 8" bbls, Navys 6"), and came with a butt stock which attached to the stock lug on the rear grip. I can't see a lug in your pics, but one should be there. DWM made some around 1902, then assembled (made?) more in the 20's. Most were commercial, I think. Gunsmiths (e.g. John Martz) since have also reproduced this configuration. It seems to be an interesting niche to study, but generally expensive!

Other, better-informed members will chime in soon, I'm sure, to flesh out info about your pistol. In the meantime, we need more pics--full left, right , top, etc, plus shots of any markings, numbers, whatever it has. This will help figure out just what you have.
