I believe the word is 'connotation'...
This poll would have to be aimed at 'collectors' rather than casual accumulators [like me]. I bought my first 'Luger' back in the '70's from my recruiter, and another several months later.
I'm not really a fanatical follower of Georg Luger, as I consider him a 'plagiarizer' of Hugo Borchardt's ideas. But I am fascinated by both for being 'Rube Goldberg' concepts.
Mostly I like to study the way it is manufactured, machined, assembled, and finished. I once worked in an aero factory that made P-40 Warhawks during WW II and quite a bit of the machinery was still there and in use. I would love to be able to tour a genuine Parabellum factory (any one of the seven).
Or any early 1900's handgun production facility.
