Milled Notch in Luger Barrel?

Larry,

Run a tight patch down the bore and see what the twist rate is. A lot of these were 1:16. Original Luger was always 1:8.

a little off the subject, but I was talking to a Army MTU guy I know, and they're running barrels with like a 1-32" twist in the competition Beretta M9s they use, and getting sub-one-inch groups at 50 yds! as accurate as a Luger is, I wonder what one would do with a much slower twist.......
