Norinco Luger

I'm sticking with acquiring my 1914 DWM from a seller who is working at getting a restricted length barrel on it. It will cost a pretty penny but it will be worth it :D.

Just don't scratch it. :p

Personally I'd love to have a Norinco Luger (and yes, of course, a real one too) and wouldn't hesitate to buy one in 9mm or .22lr. As long as it doesn't have the auto baby-killing short barrel.

I would porbably trust a new Norinco model before World War models as metallurgical science has advanced by leaps and bounds since then. That and the barrel on the Luger skeeves me out. It just seems lacking.

Maybe you should tell Norinco that. Never been to impressed with Norinco metallugy. More akin to pot metal.

It would be hard to beat the quality of the German and Swiss made Lugers of the WW2 era, not to mention the fact that they are the real deal.

Coming from someone who obviously has no clue about Chinese steel. I am pretty much anti-China lately but they do make very strong steel.
 
Thier steel is good quality, I'll give it that. The only issue is thier love of plastic parts and rough finish bleh.

So, anyone want to sell me thier Prohib licence so I can get an original luger? cause I was about 4 when they stopped letting you get them.

Cheers,
D

If the good old Canadian government would kindly lift the restriction on the barrel length it wouldn't be a waste. Sad too, I had my eyes on a 1942 Luger for a very attractive price but it was 0.5" short I think of the legal limit. That is a tragedy.

Want to sell me your prohibited license (if you have one), as I was a little squirt when that law came into effect. I don't want a Norinco, Swiss Lugers are god awfully expensive and the Finnish versions are rare and also quite expensive (I have only seen one being sold before). Looks like only one path for me and I don't feel bad about it. Better to save this Luger from being destroyed in 10 years then let it go :D.
 
Just scrolled through the website and almost all of the pistols have the words "Blanker Lauf", including some clearly pre '46 pistols. So either those words have a slightly different meaning or they have been converted via some legal issues to fire only blanks.

Doing a bit of digging, it looks like Norinco, back in the 90's made a few of these Lugers.

Edit: Thanks Doczoid.
 
Here are a few things to think on:

five-inch barrel, medium-heavy with profile almost like the issue tube

square-blade front sight

square-notch rear sight

.40S&W

save the originals.... and give us a FINE target/competition pistol, all at the same time.

I have 3 originals, bought one just to do this conversion, the discovered Soviet capture/reissue markings...... well, can't do that one!

I would buy one as above, another in 9P.
