Actually, and correct me if I'm wrong, but i believe that i heard one time that Gene Rodenberry did design the original phaser for Star Trek based on the Luger. Unfortunately, the Later Phasers look more like "Dustbusters" than any handgun design. The Luger's popularity in my opinion is indeed based on the engineering design that remains timeless today. With the exception of the Sig 210, there is no finer engineered pistol. Just think, guys, that design is over 100 years old!

Until Next Time,

Tim
