G&S do question why the lug was continued after WW1 when both Navy and LP Lugers used with stocks were never again produced. Last edited by Doubs; 03-03-2021 at 01:14 PM. |

I believe the stock lug became a convenient mounting point for the many hand-fitting operations involved in Luger production. You could get a more secure fit than using a block in the magazine well

That, and no-one ever altered the blueprints to remove it, so it kept getting built that way. If you ever have questions, you always follow the blueprints.
