I don't know about you guys, but to me it looks like it's far from finished. How old did you say you were Ed? More to the point, how old is Eugene?
Regards, Norm |

I figure that Eugene cranks out these Luger carbines kind of like the Luger firing animation on the main page of this site...Ed's carbine is down at the bottom of the 'magazine'; Eugene will sell off another carbine on GB, then another on Gunrunner, and two more, and one final one, then Ed's slot should pop up, and Eugene can get started on it...
I think Eugene said earlier in this thread he had five to finish by Xmas...$3500 isn't a bad price...

I am totally ignorant of Luger carbines and would have thought they all started from a pistol frame, with the exception of the barrel. |

I was just informed, by a usually reliable source, that Eugene Golubtsov has decided to give up on Ed Tinkers carbine and send all Ed's parts back...
This is disappointing news...For Ed, I mean...I gave up on Eugene over a year ago...

An interesting but unfortunate turn of events. I'm interested in the details, because I have always been an apologist for the Lugerman, because he always seemed to come thru, eventually.

Damn... It didn't look like there was too much work left to do, so has he been showing pictures of another build, or what happened?

Well, actually, its not off but I was a bit upset and said, if I don't get it soon, I want my parts and money back!!
So, as of now, he said he is on it and I am awaiting the final product MUCH LONGER AND I WILL GET LEGALLY UPSET - HE HAS TWO FRAMES OF MINE... |

Ed:
I have long since concluded that it takes threats as well as a lot of huffing and puffing to get Eugene moving. Glad to hear that good things are still possible. dju |

He is not worth the aggravation no matter how great a job he does.

Im sure glad I read this thread before I thought about using him to restore my Luger. I think I'll seek someone else.
