Anyone here know where to get a blank firing P08?
I don't need a live one, just one I can fire Fiocchi 9mm blanks out of.
Thanks! Alex |

Re: Anyone here know where to get a blank firing P08?
I am always on the lookout for non-firing/blank-firing Lugers, and in all my search of the net I have only found non-firing. I suspect if you were to find a blank-firing, it would be chambered for the 8mm blanks that are popular with that type of replica. I have a blank-firing P.38 and Colt M1911, both are chambered for the 8mm. Hope this helps.

Re: PO8 Blank conversion
I can sell you a shot out 9mm barrel cheap. Then is just a matter of threading the muzzel for a restrictor with a 2mm hole in the center and changing the barrel on to a separate receiver or your ulgest shooter. Tom h

Yeah, I know that they don't make an 8mm one. I have a contact who can take a real one and blank it, but it's a pain to reverse.
I guess I just need to find a beater/non-shooter that still functions and have it blanked. Alex |

Re: Anyone here know where to get a blank firing P08?
A German firm made 8mm blank firing lugers some
years ago. I have the naval model with 6" barrel. Its almost the same size as a regular luger and has a special magazine to hold the 8mm blank cartridges. When the gun is fired, the toggle action ejects the blank and loads another shell. I picked it up at the phenoix gun show about a year ago - $125. I can't remember the manufacturer and I'm away from home on business so I'll post more information in a couple of weeks |

In the past, Collector's Armoury in VA. used to carry a 4" Japanese made Luger copy that come with dummy cartridges, that would hold a pistol primer in their "nose" and it would eject and autoload just like the real thing.
