I have welded an insane amount of cracked P210 pistols over the years....
Also made beavertails (welded) and other things to the P210s.....
But those days as well as the Luger jobs for the public are since long gone.....
I have been doing this since 80's and never seen one cracked P210 slide or frame. Are you in USA? For me this is pure hobby activity and exclusively for a small amount of people, target shooters community and good friends. I am not interested in public exposure. Always being working on Feinwerkbau, Anshutz, TOZ, Hamerlys and various biathlon rifles. But there is not much of that here in Canada. Every since I moved over here from Europe I have been doing it for my own pleasure. I am member of two shooting clubs and 99.99% of the shooters never seen one P210 not even on the picture. 50% of the people haven't seen P08 since it is prohibited up here.

But definitely you gave me an itch to do something with my P08 shooter.

I can't purport to speak for Håkan, but based on my studies, cracked frames in the P210 strongly correlate with the availability of the likes of Swedish Bofors m/39B ammunition, which are not to be found in the North American consumer market.
