Food for thought: is the luger really a "weak" design?

Interarms is a good candidate for stress test. I fired around 1000-1500 rounds from an Interarms. It worked fine, no broken parts. The problem experienced was its front sight falling off. I heard similar issue from other shooters.

One day, I will find an Interarms to shoot it to break.... and see how many rounds it can handle. Everyone can try that, it's not a very expensive item.

Loading Luger magazine was painful. The designer obviously did not expect user to shoot hundreds of rounds from a handgun in one session.
