The Return of the M1907 U.S. Army Test Trials .45 Luger

[Talyn]

Many have complained that the Luger pistol is not a .45 caliber. That was first addressed by Georg Luger in 1907 when he first made the Luger in .45 caliber for the U.S. Army Test Trials of 1907. Fast forward over 100 years and we find Eugene Golubstov, AKA LugerMan, has brought that gun back.

When Golubstov set out to make a duplicate of the original M1907 Test Trials Luger, he made sure to meet the manufacturing standards used by the Deutsche Waffen und Munitions Fabriken (DWM), the original manufacturer of the Luger.

Buried in my archives of stuff-saved-over-the-years is an article on a period made .45 prototype. ISTR there having been more than one produced but maybe not all accounted for. This was decades ago and the existing example(s) a bit out of reach, price-wise.
