I have been looking through firearms books of late. The Finnish/Swedish Lahti has a remarkable resemblance to the Luger. I'm curious...does this make it attractive to Luger collectors? Was the similarity an intentional design characteristic, and if so why? Is it a "better" Luger? (perish the thought!).

Just curious as to your opinions.

Regards, Alex
