Interesting, many TH-camrs talk about it, but this is the first time it’s happened to me. The algorithm unsubscribed me from you. I was kinda wondering where you went until I happened to pass this one by. Resubbed.
I always found it interesting that the barrel of the P08 looks a little bit like some old timey cannon. Really makes the "Artillery" name appropriate for this model (though I'm aware of the true origin of that designation). I had often wondered about the exact process behind turning steel that straw color. I figured it was some method of tempering but I learned a lot about it thanks to this video.
800 meters is quite the distance for a pistol even if you use a butt-stock and can place it onto something like a wall - but I guess they were just better shooters back then 😅
Several firearms of the same era have similar “optimistic” maximum sight ranges. However, it should be considered that these weapons, including the LP08, were primarily to be used by groups of soldiers firing volleys, not for single precision shots. Hence, the maximum sight range might reflect the distance at which such a group might be expected do at least some damage, even if a lot of the shots would miss. The volley sights present of several (pre) WWI rifles reflect a somewhat similar idea, although their use (i.e. in indirect fire) shades into outright interdiction or harassing fire. When machine guns proved far more useful in this indirect fire role, volley sights were quickly dropped from rifles.
There’s many firearms of that era that are really just “wishful thinking” in trying to meet an RFP’s requirements. I mean, customer says they want 800, and by simply putting the 800 on it means it’ll do it. Right?
The ramp sight which automatically compensates for the bullet rotational drift really blew my mind. (Dude, the amount of information you put in this videos never fails to astonish me)
If that gun could talk, I would love to hear the stories where it's been the last 105 years. And I would bet the gun would appreciate the amazing job you did restoring it.
The "impurities imparted by the hand" seems to be the best explanation. Not exactly the same, but I at one time owned a matching Colt New Service dated to 1917 with vulcanized grips that was carried by two generations of police men. The right grip was significantly worn down across its surface but the left had small points of wear at the very front, showing that more wear was caused by the hand of the user than being shuffled in and out of a holster. I'm sure the same could apply to wood grips, but possibly the wood grips hold up better to friction than vulcanized rubber grips.
Yep, this totally nailed it. 90 percent of people are naturally right-handed, and back then left-handed people were beaten into being right-handed. And it doesn't take long for skin oils, dirt, the oil on your hands after you just handled or cleaned your own gun, etc, to saturate the right side of a pistol or long-gun stock more than the left. The same interesting ergonomics also come into play where damage is found on long-gun stocks. If you spend all your time carrying your rifle in front of you, the right side is pointed away from you, so it tends to have more dings than the left. However it's also common to deal with heavy scratches in one specific spot on the LEFT side of a rifle because of where it rubbed over and over against a metal bit on a soldier's gear (belt buckle rubs super common).
i fully appreciate what you're doing for the firearm community. educating people on firearms and keeping them informed is the most valuable resource anyone can provide. keep up the good work man and great vid as always👍
I do rust bluing for all my restorations, Mark lee's #1 always gives me the best results. My method goes as fallows -Boil Distilled water in a large stainless steel pot -While water heats up, degrease parts with degreaser, hand soap, or dish soap -Cut some wires to hang the smaller parts in the pot, degrease these too (For small screws, I recommend using a tea leaf holder, degrease this too) -Once water starts to bubble, its hot enough, place the degreased parts in to heat up (You can use a gas torch to heat the parts up faster but its far riskier, and the parts only need to be around 200 degrees F or 93 c -Once the parts are hot, take them out. They should dry fairly quickly due to the water evaporating from the heat, again, you can use a torch to dry it faster but this is again riskier. -Apply bluing solution and let the parts sufficiently rust before continuing -Once the parts are sufficiently rusted, put into the water and let it heat for 7ish minutes -After at least 7 minutes, take the parts out and card off the outer black oxide layer with fine steel wool (0000) or a carding wire wheel if you have a drill press -Rinse and repeat for at least 5 coats, after that, its all based on how much blue and how dark you want to blue to be. Personally I go for at least 7 coats, which to me looks the best. Apply your favorite gun oil to the metal and your good to go, the oil darkens the blue and will deactivate any remaining rusting agent. If you want, before adding oil, you can wash the parts with soap to help further remove the rust solution. Rust bluing is by far the most user friendly, time consuming, and safest method of bluing, and unlike cold blue, it actually protects the metal from further rusting, though it isn't perfect and you need to keep a thin coat of oil. Yes it takes along time to do 7 coats, but the end results are worth it.
Thank you for sharing your process. It's not at all different from the one I use, but I prepare the solution myself, since out of the US commercial rust bluing products are extremely hard to come by. And I'm a bit old school ;)
@Backyard.Ballistics I never tried making my own, ill have to look into it. Something I really want to try is browning, as that can look fairly good on certain firearms. It's too bad you can't get alot of gunsmithing supplies shipped, guess it's just to expensive to ship to Italy from the US.
Love your content man your speaking voice is so calming and the way you present everything is engaging and I feel the respect you have for the history of things and overall your passion for you craft. Wonderful sir
The Luger is truly a work of art. A beautiful weapon. When I lived in Germany in 1956 you could buy any Luger virtual any date for $25:each. Those days are long gone. When I said any date. These pistol were displayed on tall rotating racks (of wood) dowels in rows had a Luger with a dowel inserted in the muzzle. It was not just a few it was dozens.
Exellent video, and a very interesting gun. As always you did a wonderful job touching up this pistol to look presenteble again. Keep pumping out videos of this quality, they are greatly appreciated
Thank you for showing this wonderful specimen. This pistol was created to prevent the enemy from approaching the artillerymen while servicing the gun. These weapons tell us a lot about the tactics and strategy of warfare in the past. Very valuable educational material.
I hope I'm not the only one who heard artillery Luger and imagined armies firing their pistols into the air and raining down bullets upon their enemies!
Wonderfully detailed, especially the explanation of the temper colors. I've always admired the finish on early 20th-century guns, particularly the iridescent blue of small thin parts like extractors set against a deep rust-blued frame and slide.
I just wanted to tell you I have really enjoyed darn near every video you have done. Especially the revival videos you do extremely good work in my opinion,
Capolavoro, Carlo. Thanks for showing not only the restoration process, but also the science behind all of the steps taken and during the test. Have a great Buon Natale. Cheers.
Thank you so much for the historical, technical, and ballistic information that you have included in this video! Your work is very impressive, and I thank you for all that you do to bring good content to your audience!
I'm always a little unsure when it comes to restorations of pieces of history like ww1/ww2. But if anyone's gonna do it, I'm glad it's you, someone who knows what they're doing
With the grips I'm thinking that maybe when they are made they are done in huge batches and its just random what colour woods are selected for each gun since its wartime production and they aren't trying to make each gun particularly fancy, probably just picked out from a massive bin filled with hundreds of grips and just put together as fast as possible to get them out into the field.
May I suggest a simple thermocouple and ardiuno solution to your salt bath temperature control issue? Should cost roughly $20 and is fairly simple to code.
This P-08 Navy is in pretty good shape. It will be a nice example when you're done. Beautiful job my friend - keep it up! Firing long distances with a pistol is like firing a Howitzer.
Thank you for showing the salt bluing process (especially the straw color!) I have a few pieces I'd like to do and would appreciate a video on the whole process.

Not really, nickeling would have been totally white and would have worn differently. I'm not aware of any imperial luger having nickeled parts, except for some that were imported in the US, and got some refinishing in the process
@@Backyard.Ballistics thank you very much for responding, I guess under amber light nickel appears more like the colour you showed. Appreciate the clarification and really enjoy the facts you put into your videos.
Thank you for saving these beautiful specimens for future generations. Sad to think so many beautiful and historical guns get destroyed by ignorant bureaucrats and law enforcement and sometimes just regular people. They belong in the hands of someone who will value and care for them.
the barrel could either be relined or the grooves re-cut. The first approach is the most invasive, but it's easier and will give you a brand new bore. With the latter you end up with a larger groove diameter, that requires the use of a slightly oversize bullet, or at least an expanding base one.
I wonder if sweat and sebaceous oils from the hand would darken the grips - right handed is more common, with a larger portion of the grip being held in the palm vs fingers over the left side?
I think there are 9mm rifled barrel liners that could be fitted and refresh the bore of this pistol. Requires barrel removal and enlarging the bore to fit. Hard soldered into place. It would make a lovely shooter if relined.
I recently acquired a Type 38 Arisaka (intact Mum) and the barrel has been shot out. It still shoots well but EVERY round keyholes and is a flyer. I could rebore the rifle to shoot more common 6.5mm ammo but I may just get it sleeved.

I can't help but wonder if a barrel insert is possible to use to improve the accuracy of this gun.
If it's a 9 mm para it could be easily rebarreled with an insert to 7.65 para, but at the expense of originality
the barrel could either be relined or the grooves re-cut. The first approach is the most invasive, but it's easier and will give you a brand new bore. With the latter you end up with a larger groove diameter, that requires the use of a slightly oversize bullet, or at least an expanding base one.
