I saw a couple ground Lugers about 1960 and recall the story.
It just involved the legality in the USA.
They were not commonly seen.
I had a mint C96 rig, all matching including stock and 1916 leather I got from a vet neighbor.
They were illegal then and I had to give it up in 1966 just before going to the army.
Got ratted out by a fool in my dorm.
That was one nice pistol!
