.30 Luger question

unspellable · 10-05-2005, 10:07 AM

The Glisenti was originally chambered in 7.65 mm Parabvellum (30 Luger) before the advent of the 9 mm Glisenti cartridge.

The Polish Radom was chambered for the 7.65.

Ther are persistent rumors that a very very few Mauser C96 Broomhandles were so chambered.

Various submachine guns have been so chambered.

There are S&W M39 's in 7.65 mm, I'm not sure if factory issue or conversions.

I have a Ruger P89 in 7.65 mm, I suspect Hugh's Ruger P39 is really a P89.

(I have this problem all the time, fingers get ahead of the brain while typing.)
