I'm not holding my breath either, Ron! The research is difficult to say the least.

During the test period, in addition to "Borchardt" being mispelled 100 ways, the Luger is referred to as many different names:
- Borchardt-Luger System
- Parabellum Pistol
- Magazine Pistol
- Automatic Pistol
- Model 1903 Pistol
- and like you said, Ron: as a Revolver?!?

It is mind-boggling. And I haven't even got into physical library/archive paper research yet! Even if there is anything significant out there, it will be very difficult to find.
