Johnny,

Thanks for the info! It just seemed to me that that I remembered that the Luger was in the final stages of competition, but I did not remember the details. Countries sure are funny about what pistols they adopt; take Czechoslovakia in the late Thirties when they dropped the CZ-24 in favor of the ugliest double action only .380 caliber, Mod. CZ-39 pistol. I have never understood whey Germany ever issued these pistols?????? I guess they were OK for rear area soldiers.
