The two things that set the LP08 apart from all other Lugers is the 8" barrel in combination with the tangent rear sight. An interesting part of the tangent sight is the fact that the pin that the tangent sight hinges on is drilled eccentric so that the tangent sight moves up and to the left as raised to compensate for rotational drift of the bullet.
