Moving along. GT supplied me with a very nice Navy rear and offered to mount it etc... I think he sent the nicest one he had. I like to tinker so decided to mount it myself. It took a bit of filing in places to replicate the feel of the original but is not overly difficult.
The barrel is now 11.75 from the breech with a very nice crown.
I tested it with 115 gn. (All), Win. White box, Speer Lawman, and Speer Blazer...the Win/Lawman are 1190-12 ish and the Blazer Brass 1140. It ran perfectly with all 3. Really pleased.

Next comes the front sight ramp, again from GT, that replicates the profile of the original Carbine ramps. He sent this gratis..thanks.

I will have to mod it a bit I think, due to the heavy barrel profile but the Navy rear does stand higher so maybe not much. Anyways, really pleased to have a non firing Luger to work with reg. ammo. Just needed to lose some weight and get a better center of gravity.
I appreciate everyone's input.
