Luger factory accuracy

Interesting question.

IF I had to guess, I'd say that it was related to time and expense. A mechanical devise would almost surely have required using the frame without grips to be securely fastened. The time required to attach and detach each pistol would have been excessive IMO. A trained individual, OTOH, could load and fire many pistols in the same time it took to attach and detach one pistol from a fixture.

Remember too that these are COMBAT pistols and accuracy standards would be different than for target pistols. Even so, Lugers, in general, are quite accurate... better than one might expect.
