.45 Luger, and new Lugers

Steven, what you are saying about Glock is very hard to believe... for two reasons.

First, they aren't the collector/dealer I am refering to... it is an individual, not a company, that has the resources to accomplish this amazing feat... As I stated above, I will report on the status as soon as I have one.

Second, a Luger frame can't be made out of Polymer (except in someone's imagination or in a computer model)... the "ears" would never take the pounding dished out by the toggle knobs on opening.

A year or so ago, there was an internet article that pictured just such a Luger with a polymer frame... but it was a hoax... it was discussed here on the forum, and we proved that it was just a doctored photograph using the lower frame from a pistol that is already produced "stitched" together with the top of a Luger image by digital magic.
