parts interchange question?

Military and commercial parts are dimensionally the same so no problem with using commercial parts if the main goal is to get a Luger working.

Parts are generally available, and can be pricey. Look at the For Sale forum toward the bottom of the forums listing. Aldo35 has some parts. He is a forum member and I have purchased parts from him with no issues.

Jim Kemp (P08andt14@gmail.com) also has parts and is an honest seller, as is Aldo. Your Luger is early enough that it may have been made before hold-opens were used.

Be advised that some hand-fitting may be required to make parts work. Good luck. Hopefully other more knowledgeable people will chime in with more help.

Hi,
Your project sounds like you could use a pro to bring this up to snuff. I suggest you contact G.T. on this site.

if i get to play with the pistol, I'll definetly be asking questions.
the condition of the gun would almost be considered a parts gun due to the way it's been buffed so hard. But I'm live to bring orphaned projects back to life. jim
