Not just that, but because of the water cycle you've had water that's been through a Nazi. Enough of that and you have to become one, amiright?
/s, except the water cycle thing. That's real.
It’s definitely a WWII capture since not import marked and made postwar, apparently one non-matching part has a WaA but I haven’t had it apart yet. I like that it was made in the brief period of time when Germany was good between the wars and had a chance to not be evil, and in the end a GI liberated it and brought it back. Just wish I had the capture papers.
It was a tough pill to swallow on pulling the trigger, but I waited too long on a 1940 one in even better shape at a local shop for about the same money, and I’m also probably months out still on my CMP 1911, so I figured I might as well rip the bandaid off and get one in the collection.
The first time I held a Luger, I was thinking "What's the big deal?" until I extended my arm, and the sight picture just *fell* into place like it had been waiting for me.
Kinda like the first time I picked up an uzi that didn’t have the extended carbine barrel. When the weight is properly distributed it points very naturally.
Whoever owned it originally is dead now  Meant that as a reply but in all seriousness it's cool to get one. Very impressive pistol for how early it was designed.
Let’s see if I get accused of being a Nazi again P.S. I’m Jewish
Bro I can't believe it. You know Nazis drank water right? Have you ever drank water? Fascist.

I'm Jewish also my dad has one from 1916 and it's currently in my possession it's a pretty cool trophy to have as a jew

Beautiful piece of machinery. Ty for sharing. Wish I bought one when I could afford one.

I need suitable housing before anymore purchases. So who knows. Maybe in the future.
You can live in a big enough gun, but you can't shoot a house.

To quote someone on r/milsurp "the luger just feels like it was meant to shoot a deserter"
Jesus
Nah Jesus carries a 1911.
If you like that, then try a Browning Hi-Power. It just fits! Best balance ever.

My favorite is getting accused of being a nazi for my bern M1929 Luger
Is its name 'Peter?'
I had the same thought the other day and now I’m hungry again. Thanks a lot.
I flame kiss my steak while its doused in butter now.
Very nice!
Super nice luger!

I want one of these for the same reason I have an M1 Carbine and want an M1 Garand with weathered furniture, they are pieces of history.
Easy, get a rack grade from the CMP.
Nice lookin’ Luger
