Biggest thing with Lugers and combat scenarios is that the sear system is inherently not safe to leave loaded and ready to simply pull point and shoot. With a P.38, I can engage the safety/decocker to have a hammer down on a loaded chamber plus the safety if I feel so inclined, and to draw point and shoot is a one handed operation where I don’t have to change my grip to disengage the safety.

A Luger’s platform does give greater potential accuracy, but practical accuracy for a handgun in combat doesn’t need to be precision shooting. Lord knows with the adrenaline rush, you won’t be shooting precisely.
