Once again, I'm about to reveal the shallowness of my firearms knowledge, but why is it so difficult to make a luger in .45? Parts are bigger therefore stronger, muzzel velocity and chamber pressures are weaker (I'm guesing), the .45 has been around nearly as long as the 9mm so there aren't any surprises and the Luger design is no new comer either, is it the machining, custom work, or what? Or is it the supply and demand factor? Erma made the 22s. Or us there a self evident truth I'm failing to comprehend?
