Luger barrel shank dimensions?
Gentlemen,
I am considering rebarreling a P08 to accept the 7.65 Parabellum cartridge, but first I need to know more about the barrel shank dimensions. What would be the minimum OD required for this section of barrel? This is a silly question but I still don�´t have the pistol i�´m going to work. And no. I can�´t order a replacement barrel. Also, would a .303 barrel accept .32 ACP buletts our even 7.63 Mauser ones? I thank you in advance for all your insights... |

Standard P08 4" barrels are 21.8mm at the sholder, and the front sight block is 10mm from the centerline. The thread is 18mm 20tpi witworth standard... Hope this helps, FGR

Luso;
Lymans 45th edition Reloaders Handbook states that 303 British rifle bores vary greatly in diameter, so should be checked for exact dimensions. They vary from .309 to .318. If you found one the right size; .312 dia bullets for the 32 auto should work fine. |
