Also, Herbert Werle of Germany is excellent but you'd have to find a good importer/exporter who knows the laws.

I believe he has a website you guys should check out. I'll find it and get back to you. You should see what he can do with Lugers!!
Hi:

No modification is necessary, if you use a bullet design compatable with the loading ramp, but more importantly, the feeding nature of the magazine.

Over all cartridge length is a real key to proper Luger function, with Hollow Points or otherwise. With hollow points I'd start my work with the old DWM length, that being 29mm.

To really have a perfectly functional Luger, you must reload just for it.

With properly constructed reloads, and as Vlim has reminded us, crisp springs, a Luger can be a highly reliable pistol. Without these two elements, a Luger can be a continual nightmare.
