Most of the original configuration 7.65x120mm long frame lugers that I've seen in the USA were excellent restorations done for the last 30 years or so by Mike Krause. Almost all long frame 7.65mm Bulgarians that were still in their hand during WW2 were faced off and short reciever type 9x100mm barrels were installed. To be sure that one of these was possibly correct the barrel length should definately be 120mm, not the short received type of 118mm. TH
