@genericpersonx333 2 года назад
Indeed, and I think Othais is not far off when he suggests that the Colt 1911's ultimate configuration of safety and magazine release was encouraged by the Luger's success in these areas. If not for the fact that Lugers simply were expensive to make, I think Lugers would have competed with the 1911a1 for longest-serving semiautomatic service pistol. Really, until the 1990s when everyone seriously starts wanting to put fancy accessories on their military sidearms which wouldn't ever fit on a Luger, there is not much else bad about the Luger apart from the price tag.

It's hard to forget the lessons we've learned in the past hundred plus years, and I find myself saying, in reference to some of the comments in the trials, "Why would they want that?"

@richardanderson2742
@richardanderson2742 2 года назад
You really need to get into the issues with manufacture of the Luger. Even in wartime they had to be finished to a high level to function (there are no rough finished Lugers). Repair required hand fitting in an era when part interchangeability was becoming key in military arms. It is really an old world craftsmen weapon in a world that was rapidly going to semi-skilled labor mass production.
@MarkiusFox
@MarkiusFox 2 года назад
I see the elegance of the Luger being that, for all it's "warts" it shrugs off what would cripple many far more developed designs. It really takes the opposite approach to what we would typically want to do with a design. Instead of moderate tolerances and having everything covered up tightly, the tolerances are tight and mostly exposed to the elements; and it works.
@ricklotter

Othias' rant on mechanical beauty is hilarious. I agree on all points, although I can also admit that it has a bit of the steampunky baroque aspect. I think it's a great advance over the Borchardt and so much better, as your trials data showed, that denigrating it for its old-fashioned features misses the point that it had so many advances elsewhere. I think its beauty lies in its proportions... slender, elegant barrel, lovely grip tilted rakishly, jewel-like surfaces on toggle lock, mag release, etc.

I used to reload the 7.65mm Luger pistol cartridge and I found that the 7.63 load and bullet weight of 85 grains could be used in later 1906 Luger pistols in 7.65 mm. The later pistols could use a more powerful main spring and the chamber/barrel area could stand the excess pressure. I had a 1970s Mauser Luger pistol in 7.65mm and did indeed load the 7.63mm Mauser load in the 7.65mm case and it worked perfectly. I had no pressure problems. I ended up working for John Martz Luger maker making, all kinds of Luger parts, stocks, grips and magazine bases. A fun pistol to work on and shoot. Great display folks; love your show. At 40:20, I set the playback to 0.25x of normal and one can see the bounce of the left toggle knob.

Gotta admit, it's nice to see someone take steps toward debunking the 'American mag release button' nonsense. Having been mildly obsessed with Lugers since I was a kid, that never made any sense to me when all the contemporary American pistols of that time used heel releases more often than European pistols of the day, at least when you consider that stripper clip loading was still in favor for a good while. Of course I also grew up shooting P.38's, so I have never been able to understand why people could have so much trouble with heel releases either, it's still effortless to me and encourages mag retention which makes more sense when you don't have the massive logistical support machine of a military to supply more mags and ammo.
@servicerifle16
@servicerifle16 2 года назад
I find that most Americans(I'm an American as well) are extremely reluctant to learn another manual of arms when it comes to operating a pistol. If it doesn't have a button release with dropfree mags they don't want it, the fact HK had to make a separate version of the VP9 is proof enough of that.

This is very nice. I have a soft spot for Luger pistols because of their visible mechanism and elegant lines so I hope I can afford one in the future (doesn't matter much which one but preferably pre-WW2). It's the first of (succesful) modern pistol designs and the last example of the old ones which all depends on the angle you see that weapon from. If we take the Browning school of thought and the Luger school of thought then we draw some kind of Venn diagram and try to sort every automatic pistol produced in last 80 years I'm almost sure that 98% of those weapons would link to at least one of these schools in distinctive way.

Re:Snappy. The mass of the recoiling parts is similar in both the Luger and a slide action gun. With a slide, the barrel represents no more than 25% of the mass of the moving parts and it comes to a stop after about a quarter inch of rearward travel when the action unlocks. The greater mass of the slide is decelerated over about 1&3/4 inches. In a luger, the barrel and barrel extension represent about 70% of the recoiling mass. When the action unlocks, this (much greater) mass comes to a hard stop by banging against the frame. Hence “snappy.”

Engagement! As for the game designers comment, unfortunately the vast majority of 3d modelers and animators don't have hands on with the weapon in question, let alone any weapon, to properly animate them. The best resources they have is a quick youtube/google search, and even then they basically go for the first thing that pops up because generally, the model maker won't really have an interest in what they are making, it's just a job for them. Otherwise, its a deliberate decision to animate them the way they do, due to either having to strike a balance between different weapons (which they rarely get right) as in the case of RDR2, where the volcanic pistol is the most powerful hand gun in the game and the colt SAA is the weakest revolver, or to showcase the modeling prowess of their team, as in the case of Fallout 4, where many of the guns are left handed to show off the functioning bits of the model and the cool animations.

Personally I like the aesthetics of the C93 Borchardt and Luger, it's got all these mechanical bits and bobs and moving parts on the outside making it visually interesting. After the mud of the trenches, gun design buried the mechanicals into the bowels of the gun making them appear more streamlined and frankly a bit more boring to look at. I look at a glock and all I see is a rectangle, like those fake sub machineguns from the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen movie.
@ottovonbearsmark8876

24:10. Add to that, it takes (the wish for) 3 hands to clear a stoppage, due to not having a manual toggle hold open. It's a match pistol in military drag. ...the 1911 had the opposite evolution. Both realities leading to criticisms of unreliability for each pistol in the present day. Lugers need a clean action and a bloody stiff mag spring for reliability, and the most reliable 1911 has accuracy-reducing slop (or is as meticulously hand-fitted as the Luger was, to make it match grade).

I also can't wait for the 1900 as I really enjoy 1911s and just about anything Browning designed. Maybe its simply because I'm more familiar with these pistols when compared to some of the other ones. I also really enjoy when more of the development history is gone into. It's nice to learn a little about the people or person behind the gun. I do still watch all the episodes. It's just that I found this one particularly interesting.

Do the various grip angles of early pistols have anything to do with different holds? In a lot of photographs of shooters around the turn of the century, they're using a bent-arm grip and are quite square-on to the target. IME, a balance that is not quite neutral is good: a slight muzzle heaviness gives the muscles something to work against, and in a lot of fine work it seems easier to get precise control against a small resistance.

It's dark, muddy and noisy. I would rather reload this, basically just bringing my hands together, than try to fiddle with C96, Mannlicher or something similar. Also, how many years after the Luger and Browning pistols did armies realize that maybe a detachable box magazines are more efficient than trying to use stripper clips in rifles?

Stripper clip rifles used up to the 60s

Probably when 1) steel stamping tech became good and widespread enough that giving everybody 6-12 detachable mags became affordable for most armies 2) Magazines got large enough that stripper clips became unwieldy. I wouldn't want to reload 30 rounds with stripper clips!

Amazing episode as always! I see you're finally growing and about to hit that well deserved 400k subs soon! (2bh you would've already had it if not pesky youtube removing your subs)

IF there is a beat up enough one someone would give Ian/Karl, it'd be fun to see how bad it did on a mud test. Edit: Of course they already did it, lol. Awesome.

I own several Luger pistols but the Swiss has the best trigger and sights.

Dammit, too late to watch this. Though it's going into my ever growing Swiss Arms playlists.

1:00:50 that technique works very well for Beretta 92s as well. Also helps avoid accidentally engaging the safety. Also helpful for people with compromised grip strength.
