Accuracy, with stock, is basically excellent!
I have no problems hitting a small rifle target at 50 meters, others have tested ranges of 100 - 300 yards without much effort. This also supports the original manual, which also states that ranges of 300 meters are no problem, and that even at a distance of 600 meters you may expect to hit a man sized target.
The 9mm parabellum round, fired from a luger, maintains a lethal capability for well over 1000 meters, make it some 1200 at least for the LP08, although anything you hit at distances of over 600 meters attributes more to luck than to good shooting.
Drawbacks of the LP08 design:
-Distance between front and rear sight is actually shorter than on a P08.
-Construction of rear sight facilitates movement of the sight during recoil.
-It's hard to stick it in your pants.
-Gun with stock, but without holster added to stock kicks like a mule.
So basically:
-Find a way to fasten the rear sight for shooting (my favorite: tie wrap).
-Add a holster to the stock (aftermarket will do the trick, no need to damage an original one).
