Bought a near mint 70s era Interarms Luger P08 as a shooter. Would like to adjust the

[STEINBVG]

Some time ago I bought brand new Interarms Mayser Luger, Russian contract anniversary edition. The only Luger I own.

I decided to shoot it, but also didn't want to wear it out.

I decided to go with a completely different upper and a New Mec Gar mag.

I acquired an s/42 armorer's upper, decent bore. A member here , named GT fitted it with a good quality toggle kit[ thanks again]
I had to buy a side plate from Sarco and adopt/machine it to fit this frame/upper combo.

I even replaced the grips with Sarco remake[ fitting it for the grip safety my gun is equipped with].

The uppers are easily swapped for shooting and back to the 'collection' shape.

This seems like a compromise between the views of the strict purist collectors and the more liberal ones who would like to shoot their valuable guns they own as I do. [ Damn, I even shot my extremely rare Schwarzlose 1898 a few times]

I posted a thread about my 'shooter' conversion called
'My shooter upper. Thanks GT!!!'

Cheers
