The .45 is a copy of the 1907 trials model luger; which had a 5 or 5.5" bbl. Lugerman's "target" model simply has a longer barrel, 7" IIRC. Since Eugene made it, I guess he can market it as whatever, and chose "target".

The proto type has finger groove "target" grips also, but they could be exchanged of course.
