Johnny,
In addition to Tom Heller's suggestion, the Fred A. Datig book, The Luger Pistol, is also a good read about the historical perspective of the luger. Some info. is dated (as with all books that approach 30-40 years old), but Mr. Datig's story about meeting Georg Luger Jr. and August Weiss should not be missed.
Regards,
Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
