I had a crazy idea, Looking for some input...

it might be possible with the newer CNC machines, however lets look at what we know and then rumours.

1. Mauser made new made lugers in the 1970's, and they sold only okay, plus you can still get them new in box for around $1000-$1400

2. Mitchel arms (and other names) made them for years in stainless and they have always had issues with mechanically having problems

3. Rumours - I have heard rumours of 45 lugers being made at least twice in the last 10 years using CNC, one failed, the other one is still trying.

4. I know a guy who makes parts, they look very good, but think that the amount would be about double what you state or more.
