Took it to the pistol range this afternoon. My son and I put 100 rounds through it. It performed as well as any semi-automatic pistol we have tried out so far. This means it jammed a few times and also failed to eject at least twice. I guess I got spoiled by the M-14 in the Army; it fired thousands of rounds with flawless performance. Think I'll get one someday. Another thing is that the new magazines' knobs apparently failed several times to engage the lock after the final round so the breech closed. That said, the Luger is accurate and a joy to shoot. Think I'll get an Arty next.

TAC & Don,

Thanks for the history lessons guys. You have given me much more information than I had expected. I am enjoying this very much...including the wondering.
