'Target' Luger w/MMC Sight
From the November 1971 Shooting Times, a 'contributing editor' had an article on a 'target' Luger he had made up...
"Skeeter Builds A Long Luger" Dovetailed rear toggle...

I have a couple of those unmodified MMC sights, Wish I knew how to alter them like Skeeter did. I read that article in 1971 when it was published. I still have the magazine. Thanks for the memory flashback Rich.

Rich,
thanks for posting. Interesting project. I'll see what MMC still has available- if they are still around.

Me too Ed... He was a first edition of Sheepherder when it came to experimenting... Loved his articles growing up.

Thanks Hugh. Email on the way.
I've been having a little trouble with my MMC substitute!
