USMC0802 Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Thanks to Dan, Hans, Bill Helmer, and Sandy's help...I think I have the best representative reproduction of an original Lebman select fire .45 out there. This has been a long project, started digging into it a couple of years ago with the goal of recreating a Lebman machine pistol as accurately as would be possible. It has features from a couple of different examples, as no two were completely alike and this one makes for a reasonable representation of what he would have been producing c.1933-34 for clients who wanted one. Aside from the subtle NFA engraving, it looks like it just came out of a dresser drawer in Chicago. Here's a photo from the Ozark Machine Gun Instagram account: Sure wish Sandy could have seen it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt Chopper Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Looks great !!! Where in the world did you find the original "Muti-Shot" mag? Only the second one I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMC0802 Posted December 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Thank you Sir! Sent you a PM on the Monarch...I was thrilled to find that. Bought it several months ago knowing that the machine pistol project was in the works. Would really like to find one of the curved Star magazines for it as well...

deerslayer Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 The 15 round mags from sarco were reported to me to work initially on another guy's full auto conversion but after a while they quit .. I just found a 15 round promag I'm gonna try. I don't one tho the sarco mags were made by. I did try the 28 round Korean drum and it didn't feed right.

deerslayer Posted January 1, 2020 Report Share Posted January 1, 2020 Here is the 15 round mag.. And the drum... Only the second time I've tried the drum. Instead of fully loading it I put 14 round in and it worked. So maybe something less than fully loaded with prove workable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
