Reasoning for cut out on frame

skeeter4206 · 06-28-2014, 12:07 AM

The luger with the slot cut in it is from the Hessian Police luger H.P. 54. This gun is mentioned in Edward Tinkers Police lugers book on pages 60 - 61. This gun has had several portions of the gun changed out as it went through an armory for repairs. So maybe it was damaged from something and they had to cut the slot in the frame for some reason to get it working again.
