Default Question on the amount of stock use

How common was the use of a stock? I mean, basically 99% of the military issue lugers are fitted with a stock lug, but it seems to me that stocks are a rather rare commodity. It seems "uncharacteristically German" to put the time and energy into the stock lug on the pistol when probably less than 1% of the lugers made actually ever had a stock attached. I can understand Navies and Artilleries, which regularly had stocks issued, but on 'regular' 4 inch barreled guns, why bother?
