The "Luger" Reputation

Beretta owner, John?

Seriously, the Beretta is a pretty nice pistol in it's own right, but I'd go for the 'original' P38 anytime (after a luger, of course)

If you place a P38 and a beretta side by side on the table, it's not too difficult to see where the inspiration for the 92 came from. I wonder if there's any solid information on the P38 design being 'reused' by several other suppliers as the CZ 75 also leans heavily on the P38 design.
