Default Re: Luger Triggers and Accuracy

Many people that first learn to shoot modern handguns do so on guns that have very crisp (not much trigger movement before release) triggers. The can fire them fairly accurate even with a very minor flinch (rapid pull) to release the trigger. When they attempt to fire the Luger, especially offhand, they do the same thing, but with the Lugers long trigger pull, the muzzle waves all over the place will they are moving the trigger to fire it. It is kind of like learning to fire them all over. Most Lugers will keep up or even outshoot most modern day service pistols in the right hands. I hear stories all the time about some old WWI DWM that has half the bluing left out shooting modern day guns and walking away with the prize! Ah.....I love Lugers!! Thor
