Nice old video of a P08

I particularly like how the words 'Gesichert' and 'Geladen' are pronounced. Also look at the magazine. It has a custom repaired bottom piece.

Just saw this Vlim,

very interesting, sounds like a US Army training movie, except it is by a brit and he uses non-american terms. So maybe for NATO. Interesting how he said the luger was still used by senior non-coms, so this must be from the 70's or earlier?

Hi,

I think it's actually from WW2. The 'last war' he refers to is probably WW1.

Very interesting footage... any idea how the video can be downloaded for local play?

Neat Video.. yes I think its from WW2 also.. there are other video's linked to this one in Google movies showing loading etc. of the MG42, MP-40, K98, and they are wearing Third Reich uniforms in the vids..

It was the "color" photography that made me think later... I have the WW2 in color DVD, so know they had it

No matter what very interesting.

John, it is in the temp files and was saved as Lugerpistol.flv

I downloaded a free flv reader and now can watch it.
