Aaron,

I might draw a different conclusion.

Mauser Parabellums are only 35 or so years old; original P-08 range from 60-100 years old. By reputation most Mauser Parabellums are seldom used, whereas original Lugers can have active, shooting service lives up to 40 years.

In this light the breakage experiences reported with these pistols in the other discussion make them seem relatively fragile.
