Now that is one mumbo-jumbo Luger. I can't say that it appeals to me, but if it actually functions, then I take my hat off to the builder. I have a hard enough time getting "normal" Lugers to run 100%.

Waffen Werle has always specialized in odd-ball lugers

That outfit needs follow the same guidelines as tattoo parlors: Don't follow directions from a customer who is under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Seriously, I find it very difficult to believe that a customer actually ordered it (or any other gun in the link) like that. I'd certainly give it an A+ for creativity and workmanship, but an F for the appearance. I can't really see these abominations as anything else than showpieces to demonstrate that "we can do anything".

Interesting for sure, but rather painful to look at.

Otherwise known as "Think before you ink..."

If this were being done to a common as dirt, production gun, who cares. It would improve the looks of Glocks for instance. But there aren't going to be m/any more Lugers...

Haw!!! The M1 Luger carbine I like; the AK Luger is funny because Werle had to create a tunnel in the front sight base for the Luger to fire through...

Laugh if you must, but I bet the crowd around his table at any show is ten deep...
