Luger Carbine Forearm Question
I can't tell from static pictures, is the cross-section of [any] Luger carbine forearm round, oval, "U" shaped, or does it have a distinct flatness to it, with a rounded bottom???
I don't know anyone with a carbine, and it doesn't look like anybody I know is going to get one anytime soon... Thank You!

I believe Ron Wood has one. You may ask him.
PS. Don't be mean to Ed. |

Pictures
I have attached pictures of the carbine that Eugen made for me. I would describe it as a tight "U".

Don't know if these photos will help. The checkered portion is mostly flat with a rounded bottom that transitions to a fairly "U" shape toward the forward "schnabel".
