I'm not sure if my "favorite" Luger even exists. It would be a new model commercial with out grip safety in 7.65 Parabellum with a 120 mm "non-pencil" barrel, that is one with the same outside dimensions as the 9 mm barrel.

The nearest I have come to this is a mismatched 1942 mauser rebarreled with a 120 mm 7.65 non-pencil barrel. It's no great collector's piece but it is my pet shooter.

There is something about the 120 mm barrel length that makes it look well proportioned to my eye.
