Best Answer

The Luger was a very precision crafted firearm, the grip angle feels extremely natural, the 9mm cartridge had a decent amount of power, they were seen as desirable war trophies, and they simply look sexy to many people. However, I still prefer my 1911A1 in 45 ACP.

. What is a luger?

The Luger P08 was the side arm used by the German Army for both World War 1 and World War 2. The pistol was deisgned by George Luger and went into production in 1908, thus Pistol 08 or P08. The design had a unique toggle receiver mechanism. The gun has only 2 screws and they hold on the wood grips. This design uses close tolerance, sliding mechanisms that does not withstand dirt and grime. That is why the Luger holster completely encloses the pistol.
