Luger & Lahti Similarity ?

Top View is really telling. The Lahti is a like a tiger tank (lots of metal) weighs 44 ounces (same as a 6" Model 27 S&W 357 Magnum (44 frame)) where the Luger weighs 30+ ounces. A real ***** cat to fire too! My wife fell in love with this one and had a ball, as I did, shooting this one. ~Thor~ It has a locking block much like a C96. Some say they crack but some say no. They feature an ACCELATOR arm and spring to open the action hard to function super in very cold weather. The Finns came up with the design and Sweds used it in their manufacture. This one is a Swedish model made by Husqvarna. ~Thor~
