Gentlemen:

Has anyone out there in Luger land ever clocked an original 123gr. German Military or Civilian 9mm Parabellum round (manufactured before 1946) at any velocity in excess of 1076 fps. from a standard 100 mm (4 Inch) barreled Luger?

A lot of folks (even some authors) claim that there was such a round developed for the new model (coil spring) Luger.

Well, let's see if anyone has ever found and shot one.

If such a round was ever produced, it hasn't been mentioned in any of the period German or English texts I have read to date.
