Re: .30 luger linage
Considering the successful autoloading rounds that preceded it, the 7.65 Mauser for the C96 pistol and the 7.65 Borchardt for the C93, the 7.65 Luger was necessitated by Georg Luger's inovation of the recoil spring in the grip. One of these longer rounds would have made for a very large grip and the luger would not be the comfortable nice pointing pistol that we love today. Tom
