.45 Luger

Robert,

As I understand, Mike Krause is still taking orders for his .45 lugers as well as the Baby lugers he makes. I think the last .45 luger price I was aware of was $ 15K/piece. Not sure what the Baby price is.

John Martz, I believe, also made .45 lugers out of 2 regular lugers cut 2/3-1/3 with the (2) 2/3 pieces welded back together. Martz lives in the Lincoln, CA area (just outside of Sacramento).

The Mauser folks also made one (1) custom .45 luger pistol as a prototype...never went into production during the 1970-1980's luger production.

I am pretty sure some European .45 lugers were also made by local gunsmiths...not sure by whom or how many, though...

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
