1902 Luger Carbine

I 'd like to but a 1902 Luger carbine but understand big numbers are involved. After reading on this site I don't believe there is one book devoted to these but was hoping that you all could recommend the references to buy to avoid an expensive mistake - thanks Michael

There is an excellent documentation of the 1902 Carbine in Goetz and Sturgess' "The Borschardt and Luger Automatic Pistols". It covers prototypes, development and commercial Carbines.
