Luger information

The difference between a the long fram and the short frame can be clearly seen when comparing a 1908 P04 and a model 1914 P04 look at any picture of these guns and look at the side views of the frames. Look at the frame just in front of the locking bolt. There is a large radius on the long frame and a smaller radius on the short frame. Other Lugers could be used, I just happened to think of the P04. I guess that any pre 1908 (except the P04) and post 1908 could be used for comparision. 1908 seems to be the transition year.
