Anyone heard of Ruger? This company seems to make several luger-like and one or two types of Luger "clones".

The Ruger .22 auto pictured is one of the best designed and executed .22 autos ever made. I have had at least one at all times for the last forty years. I've got one now that I bought ten years ago and shoot all the time. I've never cleaned it other than a swab and wipedown and it's never jammed or misfired.

I believe that I read in an NRA article several years ago that some aspects of the pistol's form were inspired by the Luger.
