Anyone been to the range?

It may be 9mm, but it ain't no Luger.

The luger's sights may be difficult to use if you are used to sharp sight pictures with sharp edges that fit well, but at least the gun can usually shoot to the same point of aim most of the time.

The P-38 may be a more modern design that was way ahead of it's time, and they will sure perform well at close combat ranges (like 10 yards or less on man sized targets), but beyond that, I have always considered them to be like lightning - they never strike twice in the same place The front sight is way too thin or the rear u-shaped notch is way to wide... and the single action trigger pull is far from acceptable for long distance shooting...

Any comments from other shooters from the P-38 forum members? Feel Free to Flame away!

regards, John
