What attracts you to the luger?

It's a great question and I'm not sure I even know the answer.

I do know I would not even be here on this on any firearms forums had I not inharited the two S&W wheel-guns from my brother just a year ago.

My wife and son and I took them to a pistol range and knew we wanted to get our own weapons-of-choice. She wanted a new PPK. I knew after brief reflection that mine had to be a Luger even though I didn't yet even know how one functions. Internet searches brought me here where I learned nearly everything I now know about them. I am still in awe of the wealth of knowledge possessed by the members, old and new, of this forum. I have since added other guns, C96, P38, M1911 to my collection but the Lugers are most prized.

Sublime elegance of design and execution is the only way I can explain my fascination with the Luger.
