If you ever run empty (not very likely
) with that thing, it's heavy enough to bludgeon someone to death with ease

Thanks. The Luger (Lange Pistole 08) is all-matching & made in 1917, and so is the drum. These are very neat pistols, they're commonly called Artillery Lugers, but in actual fact they're found mostly with unit marks from infantry regiments. In 1917 they were issued on a scale of 10 per company for issue to trench raiders and assault troops, and widely issued to stormtrooper battalions. It took up pretty much the entire years production, so this one you can pretty much guarantee was used by one or the other.
The other really cool thing about it is that the trommel mag is specifically exempt from magazine capacity restrictions due to it's rarity and historical signficance. So it is, as far as I know, the only pistol in Canada that can legally hold more than 10 rounds. Now I just need the original holster and stock, which will probably end up being another 1K down the drain... going to make do with reproductions for awhile on that one. |

Now you can be an example to the Gov't of how high capacity guns don't cause people to rampage

Well, the thing about the trommel is that it's basically impossible to load more than 10-12 rounds without the loading tool anyways.
So there's another $500... |

I guess this probably counts as necroposting, but I'm very curious;
what is the technique to shooting a Luger with the snail mag? Do you have to hold it some special way? Or just do a ton of bicep curls before? |

Well, the trommel was only ever intended to be used with the stock. Using it just as a pistol would be retarded. You hold the pistol with your right hand, stock in the shoulder, left hand under the drum. It's actually pretty awkward.
On a side note, I've picked up a reproduction holster / stock and found a guy in Europe selling a loading tool fro $600. Sadly thats a good deal, the tools are 3 times rarer than the drums. And the drums are rare! |
