Was there some reason why Lugers were never chambered for the .30 Mauser? I've always wondered about it because it is a great performer and it was the common chambering for the broomhandle so certainly supplied during WWI. If the design will handle the .45 ACP, why not the .30 Muaser? Just curious if it was ever considered.
