Shooting section & P-o8 section

unspellable · 06-05-2002, 10:54 PM

There was mention of a shooting section which I do not see as of yet. I visualize it as dealing with operational issues, why does it jam? etc. Ammo and reloading might or might be included in this.

The main grouping is labeled P-08. Old models, carbines, naveys, commercials, post WWII, etc. are not really P-08's. Perhaps a slight alteration of the name?

Hmmm - it's tough to argue with you when you are right!! [img]wink.gif[/img] I'll change the "P-08" to "Luger" in a moment..!!! I'm still trying to figure out the "Ammo/Reloading" Forum - and perhaps adding "Troubleshooting" Description to Thors current "Restoration & Refinishing"? Thor - what are your thoughts? Anyone else?

Thanks folks!

I'd vote for ammo/reloadin and troubleshooting as subcategories under shooting. There's bound to be some crossover between these two areas.

For example my own project on what to feed the 30 Luger looks like it will get pretty deep into the subject of recoil springs.

I like the idea of a shooting section dealing will all aspects of shooting Lugers, reloading, funtion, etc. I have a ton of information on reloading the 9mm and can share some of those experiences as others can with feeding issues, function, etc.

Hi All...

I thought I'd post my comments back into the threads themselves - as I just touched on this in the "Unit Markings thread:
Unit Marking Thread.

I have to agree - a Shooting/Reloading Forum would be a terrific addition - as it isn't variation specific and is a "common" area to all Lugers. Let me try to get a few minutes and set it up in a bit, OK?
