Pete, $1500 bucks...some assembly required. Actually looks like a nice kit.
Is it serialed in any way?
Bout the cheapest Luger Carbine you are ever likely to come accross.

Slick looking kit. Contrary to what the seller says, it won't turn "every" Luger into a carbine since the frame extension and forearm are shaped to fit a long frame.

But no international shipping...

It doesn't have the barrel/forearm actuator.

Good point. It is obviously set up to create a 1920 type carbine. That further narrows down the types of donor Lugers that could be modified with this kit. Except for the Swiss, not a lot of New Model long frames to choose from.

Hi,

I doubt that it will be much trouble to fit the extension to a standard P08-pattern gun. This kit looks like someone spent quite some time to develop it and I don't think they would use pretty rare frame patterns to start with, but rather the relatively commonly available P08-style frame.

I can't tell since I'm inable to read much German...

Maybe that's why no international shipping...
