There is a sort of companion thread discussing the smaller caliber conversions at -

What prompted a previous owner to grind off the chamber date is still a mystery. As much as grinding off stock lugs on other Lugers, I suppose...

There was no intent on offending the masses with my last posting.

Twas a sincere form of support for Sheepherder's potential project, and that the part he procured was a good one functionally.

The 224 BOZ and 22 TCM are relatively new cartridges made purposely for submachinegun with low recoil and great concealablity. They FWIW were noted to be able to penetrate most armor worn today at the time of their offering. If you ever fired a submachine gun in 9mm or above, you know they can be a handful to hold onto, the little cases are more like early Ingrims(sp?). The BOZ and TCM are on the internet for those that care to know more. They just happen to be on the short side of most 22 centerfires, hence thought for the 22 Luger project...

A "D" reamer is simply a made up simplistic reamer to whatever dimensions one would want. That too is on the net. D reamers are free for those that know how, multi fluted reamers begin at 150 bucks. Not everyone is made of money like you guys.

No more from me on the 22 Luger project, the way I feel now with the pain/blood; no words can do any more harm. But I will bow out and will not let the door hit me on the way out. I can take hassle, harsh words, but intolerance is hard for me to get over. And we all wonder why the gun guys have no new replacements............

I wish Sheepherder the best in his project, he will make it work; more than you two can do.............

I will bow out of this and the 'companion' thread also. I'm not a collector and this forum is collector oriented. Modifications to Lugers seem to generate disinterest.
