A Luger, any origonal Luger, is an antique. An origonal 1911 or 1911A1 is an antique. Treat them as such. Unless its a 1911 type modern gun which is not an antique, most professionals whose life may depend on it carry neither. Both had their time, both have their history, and neither are in use by any modern military or police force. Both my 1911A1 and Luger function quite well for punching holes in targets at closer and closer distances.
