Its kind of difficult to appreciate a Luger without having the experience of many firearms in your past. Guns (handguns) really haven't changed a lot since 1911 - Browning system or revolver- I'm referring to systems, A new Colt .45 will shoot the same round as an origonal 1911, a new Beretta will shoot the same round as a 1908 Luger. The beauty in a Luger is in the engineering, the system has never been duplicated or copied by anyone else. Its a one of a kind, stand alone work of excellence that just can't be duplicated. Nothing in a Luger's design is a copy of anything else. And the round developed for the Luger is the # one bullet for hand & submachinegunes used today. They are fascinating marvels of design & engineering.
