Model 1900 luger with stock lug.

MJI-1198 · 12-08-2024, 08:07 PM

I recently was told there were model 1900 Lugers with stock lugs, were they experimental? Or very limited production? I've never heard of one. I am aware of the Carbines, these were supposed to be pistols. I looked through my reference books, didn't see anything.
Thanks, mji-1198

Old Model Carbines, as Ed said. These begin round sn Also a series of Old Model pistols with long barrels, stock lug with stock, and experimental 6-position rear sight, in the range between sn 10000 and sn 10050, ostensibly for the Chilean army. Sturgess calls these Chilean Carbine prototypes, although they do not fall in the B suffix prototype series. There appear as early as sn 21157.

There are also Old Model carbines in a separate serial number series, some with the Chilean style rear sight, some with a C serial designation, some with the GL hallmark. These are not well documented.
