Well, I do not consider myself a world class competitive pistol shooter, but I am impressed by the accuracy of the Luger. Here is an FBI Qualification target that I've posted before. You can see I have a few "fliers" but you can also see two pretty tight groups of holes since the course I was firing was done from two different distances. Additionally, these shots were fired under circumstances designed to mimic the stressful environment of a self-defence situation. And the Luger was simply an ordinary run-of-the-mill .30 with a six inch barrel. This was the best looking target on the firing line when it was all over and everyone else was using much more "modern" pistols too. I do not think it is my own marksmanship ability as much as it is the inherent accuracy potential of an ordinary Luger. Anyway, that's my "two cents" worth.
