Please upload your photos DIRECTLY to the Lugerforum and do not link to them on other storage sites like photobucket.

MANY forum members (including myself) cannot see your photos because they are behind corporate or government firewalls that prevent using external storage websites, hence they cannot provide you with comments, advice or recommendations.

That test was at only 440y. Even the artillery Luger has sights adjustable to 800m to compensate for bullet drop...

The Luger was a secondary weapon. The main weapon this particular fighter was carrying was a FN FAL. (A large number of ISIS fighters are armed with American M16A4's in reality besides Kalashnikovs - with most sidearms being Glock 19's) It would have been most likely used as a backup weapon, or in the case of ISIS a weapon for summarily executions.

I'll include some pictures uploaded directly to the sight in time.
