I shoot the luger with two hands, it is more accurate because I can hold it steadier. I shoot a luger one handed as often as I shoot a 1911 or other pistol, it all depends on what I feel like doing that day.

Accuracy is many things, one thing is the set-up of the barrel to the rest of the gun. A 1911 barrel is not as "locked" tight as say a luger is. So that is one reason it has better accuracy (of course a colt guy might say otherwise! Oh, I am a colt guy, and a luger guy and a ...)
