I have pictures of the "Baby Luger",cut out from old mag. articles("Shooting Times") and have a real good one in "The Luger Book" by John Walter and in "Lugers at Random" by John Kenyon,it is stated by the Weiss(?),project supt. that 2 were made in .32 and 2 made in .380.
Ralph Shattuck has a 7shot prototype Luger,shorter barrel,shorter grip area(only one ever made),in "The Luger Book" by J. Walter the pictured "Baby Luger" is said to be from the "Carl Wilson" collection,there was a member of the "Beach Boys" of record fame named Carl Wilson(guitarist) who was a noted gun collector,I wonder if he is the same person,funny thing about "Carl Wilson",google his name and include gun collector with it,site description says shot 5 times in botched ATF raid,get a real crazy site warning so I didn't go any farther.
