Luger Frame

The frame is about 75% finished, I'd say. It's lacking the machining for the holdopen, the top area still needs to be milled out, holes for the safety lever need to be drilled. Back area of the frame, where it meets the receiver needs to be shaped.

It is a frame with a stock lug and the grip shape (although difficult to see) looks kinda classic.
There is also a company in Germany, making P08 copies that fire alarm pistol blanks. Could be one of those as well.

Frames and receivers were made from rough forgings and gradually milled, drilled and worked into shape. Some 180+ machine steps for the frame only
