As someone with an engineering background i've always been curious about how products used to be manufacted since the beginning of the industrial revolution.

Does anybody know what the production of the Lugers at DWM looked like? (or guns in general at that time)
What tolerances could be reached with their machines?

All i know is that the invention of High Speed Steel led to whats called "Wettdrehen" in german (Competition turning)
