The 1970s Mauser Parabellum was sighted in and test shot at 25 meters, rather than 50 (as the pre-1948 ones were).

When it comes to accuracy, the luger has no competition. One problem is that most modern trained shooters don't know how to handle it. The inherent inaccuracy and consequent short range use, combined with a pose that is designed to handle these modern low-grade guns doesn't help people to understand the cleverness of the luger design.

'Tea Pot stance' (and the right attire of course) !
