[Riposte1]

I cannot explain why I dont own a Luger. Neither of the guns appealed to me much over the years excpt for historical value. But, by some strange coincidence, I picked up two P-38s a couple of years ago within 6 months of each other.

I am still not impressed with either design as a practical pistol but I have to admit, shooting some Black Hills 147 gr JHP ammo in one of the P-38s it was as accurate as any service handgun I ever shot. With normal 124 or 115 gr ball it is just average - but that is not so bad..

The triggers are pretty crude on both of mine (one is a
43 and one is a 43/44 overstamp).

One of them came from a woman who's recently deceased husband was a Col. and I got with it a handmade holster stamped "Wolff". She could not relate any of the personal history of the gun unfortunately.

A friend has an 8" "Artillery" luger with the stock and the 32 round snail drum mag. Never got to shoot it though.
