About the Gun

Probably the most common Luger Parabellum made by DWM. These post-WWI guns were assembled using the parts of previously manufactured Lugers. Much of the stock was made up from military marked parts. Other parts came from production runs as far back as 1900-1906. Regardless, production quality was very high on these guns. Thousands and thousands of these 1920 reworked pistols were produced. Late, flat, checkered style toggle knobs. No grip safety. Stock lug.

About the Cartridge

This cartridge was introduced along with the Luger semi-automatic pistol. The pistol and cartridge was first adopted by the German Navy in 1904 and then by the German Army in 1908. This cartridge has since been adopted by the military of practically every non-Communist power. It has become the most popular and widely-used handgun cartridge in the world. Performance wise, the 9 mm cartridge has somewhat more power than the .38 Special but falls well short of the .357 Magnum.
