ID help on artillery Luger with really long barrel

reiver · 11-03-2023, 09:42 PM

it will not 'blow up' .... the only issue that may arise is failure to feed/ recycle properly due to that massive barrel.
If it is the 7.65 cal. / 9mm it is easy to tell by placing a round in/at the muzzle to 'size' it.
Generally, the long barreled without the under-barrel spring assist have issues....but, one never knows until you try.

The receiver doesn't have the artillery recess while the rear toggle looks like artillery type. There is a small mark this toggle could be an Erfurt, just a guess. A closeup photo? Nice gun for a collection. Thanks for sharing
