Norinco Luger?

[Deckard]

Cool if true, but not sure. If they ever made these, wouldn't that be nice?

 

[UncleMax]

This would be awesome (if restricted) to get in Canada. It would be really fun, and assuredly a lot more affordable than a German luger...

Is this real, or just somebody's Photoshop fun?

 

[Deckard]

Not sure.

 

[Colin]

A luger is a fairly complex piece, I can't imagine them making them and making a profit.

 

[Deckard]

Apparently they are for Germany under the Norconia line.

 

[deets]

Even if norinco couldnt make one for their regular cheap price, I would pay up to 800 for something like that in 9mm. Wow what a cool toy that would be.

Part of the allure of the Luger is quality.

Agreed

 

[sillymike]

Wonder if they could make them in 45acp...

 

[bear.23]

what do originals cost?

 

[sillymike]

Depends on condition/caliber/configuration... anywhere from $300-$3,000 (or more)

 

[bear.23]

what do originals cost?

Doesn't matter as most lugers are prohib due to barrel length...

 

[Deckard]

I believe Bits and Pieces and Dlask both make Luger barrels.

 

[Super_Chicken]

I've always wanted one of these as a fun gun. I love the look and function of it!

For a restricted version, cheapest I seen was $1600. Sold pretty quickly. Most are around the $2000 mark.

Here's a Norinco Luger supposedly for sale for 200 Euros:

so cant 12 6 buy one then.

 

[Deckard]

12(6) can't buy them as they are new imports. But if the price was good, an importer could have them brought in without barrels and have our smiths install a longer one. The PPN would be very easy to convert too.
