Luger Carry Case & Barrel Length

militarypistolman · 06-29-2005, 10:42 AM

Hi Folks,

I have a few questions.

Can anyone identify the barrel length of the pistol illustrated in the attached photograph?

In order of popularity, what are the two (2) most common Luger barrel
lengths.?

I am WTB a repro Navy Luger flat-board to dress up my pistol. Does anyone know of one for sale?

Thank you and I look forward to your replies.

I WOULD SAY THE PICTURED LUGER HAS A 4 3/4 INCH BARREL. A 4 INCH BARREL HAS TO BE THE MOST COMMON ,FOLLOWED BY A 4 3/4 OR THE UNDER 4 INCH OF THE POST WAR? Bill

Since the luger pictured is a M1900, it would have had a 7.65x120mm (4&3/4") barrel. The most common luger barrel by far has to be the standard military issue 9x100mm (4"), then probably the 7.65x95 or 98mms used commerically during the Weimar period. TH

Hi Tom;

You forgot to tell him the bad news! Navy stocks are not possible to attach to the M 1900 Luger, and if it were possible, ITS VERY ILLEGAL to attach a Navy Stock to any other than an original Navy Luger.
The only stock that is legal to attach to a M 1900 Luger is an "Original Ideal Holster Stock", "Quite expensive", and there is only one Reproduction of this stock Known. "Also expensive and not for Sale "
See "One of a Kind Luger Accessory" in "Member Gallery".

I am unsure if it is illegal in the United Kingdom, just in America...

Provided his address is correct,

Even if its LEGAL, its not very practical, if even possible !
