I have a long barreled Luger project waiting for machine time right now...I had a thread up about it, but I think I may have deleted it...Here's two pics from it [below]...

The amusing part is that without extensive lightening, the barrel won't recoil...The gripframe will fore-coil...

You'd have to hold revshop's 20" barreled action/pistol in two hands to shoot...And instead of your front hand going back, your pistol-gripping hand will travel forward...

I think that is hilarious...

I got this reply today from the seller -

Dear proudfather76,

Hello!

I have to say, I am somewhat skeptical of this being .22 caliber. The profile and the muzzle pics look like 30 Luger/7,65 Parabellum caliber. Is it actually .22 caliber???

Do you have a pic of the chamber end???

Thank you for your help!

Dear Rich B.

Yep, my eyeballs were telling the truth, it's still a .22, no matter how many times I look at it. You are being fooled by it's looks in the picture because it is scaled down. It's nowhere near as big as it looks in the photo. Camera app is not cooperating, sorry.

So...You pays you money, and you takes you chances...
