  • The Pistole Parabellum 1908-or Parabellum-Pistole (Pistol Parabellum)-is a toggle-locked recoil-operated semi-automatic pistol. The design was patented by Georg J. Luger in 1898 and produced by German arms manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) starting in 1900 with other manufacturers such as W+F Bern, Krieghoff, Simson, Mauser, and Vickers; it was an evolution of the 1893 Hugo Borchardt-designed C-93. The first Parabellum pistol was adopted by the Swiss army in May 1900. In German Army service, it was succeeded and partly replaced by the Walther P38 in caliber 9×19mm Parabellum.

    That's a treasure. The engineering and mystery that was done to Luger is so perfect and elevated that to this day no one has been able to copy the design. Only Germans even capable of such engineering, are very intelligent and very educated. Many Germans live in the south of Brazil, we like them very much. In Brazil Luger is 2000 to 2500 dollars.

      That’s cause the last Lugers ever built were in 1942. Allied bombing was quite successful at destroying the factories which produced the precisely machined parts the P-08 Luger depended on to function. The gun was too complicated to “ dumb down” for production in heavily damaged German factories. They’ll set you back 1200 to 1500 for a slightly rough commercial model. It’s about 2500 to 3500 for one in good shape or one with war trophy paperwork

    Hello,
    I am your subscriber on youtube and enjoy watching videos in which you talk about some of the most interesting facts about iconic weapons and first of all, I want to thank you for your videos, but the main reason why I am writing to you is Luger P08, my grate grandfather brought one of P08 from WW2 and kept it in the basement for almost 50 years and just a few years ago, on my 18th birthday, he gifted it to me.
    Now I have a few questions about the gun and I would really appreciate your expertise on the subject. So my P08 is a standard 1906 model I guess, but it says that it was made in 1914 and I learned how to disassemble and assemble it right away and I checked and all the part numbers are the same, 46 it says everywhere, but it also has some symbols on the top of the barrel and some others on the side as well. I have been trying to identify those symbols but unfortunately, I came up with nothing but more curiosity. maybe you will be able to tell me more about those symbols. what do they stand for, I am sure they have some meaning and reason to be drawn on the pistol.
    And I have one more question, I might sound crazy but I wonder besides the barrel length if there is any difference between standard P08 and LP08? I mean, is it possible to change the barrel on standard P08 and assemble it as LP08?

      @@0Asterite0 I get that but i always saw the Luger as a hybrid of a blowback and locked breech design. The tilt breech was made famous by the colt M1903 then just upped in size to accommodate a bigger bullet. Also remember the C96 broomhandle was technically not a locked breech gun either cause the whole bolt kicked back. The Walther P-38 was the oddball with the locking block design. Ironically it was copied by beretta in the 92. Then let’s not forget the only 2 guns in recent history that ran a rotating breech the Beretta Cougar/ Stoeger cougar 8000, and the Full sized PX4 storm. If I ever get the opportunity to own a P-08 Luger I’ll definitely consider it. Antiquated for sure but definitely a unique gun

    The bolt and barrel are to slide back together for 13mm then the 'knee' hits a cam and bounds upward....I'm not seeing that in this animation...it looks like the toggle is moving upward at the same time as the barrel is initially moving back. Not correct. Plus the recoil in vid makes it difficult to see this flaw... but one can see it better if you slow it down.

    @Kidradd66 4 года назад +2

    I think I can see why everyone call the Luger a safe action handgun. However, I can also see why it can't be highly tolerant to heavy abuse, wear and tear in an actual battle. This is because I noticed how the trigger sear with no.73 on the left side of the frame being central to the gun's firing mechanism and if by any chance the dirt and grime get caught in between or it gets even slightly bent the gun might not be able to fire.

    • @matthewcaughey9431
      @matthewcaughey9431 3 года назад +5

      Most WW1 vintage Lugers survived well enough to be reissued in WW2. They were issued with a full flap holster intended to keep most debris out of the working parts. Additionally back then the firearms trails were actually trials, now whatever manufacturer gave us the most kickbacks to see it their way. But then they tested several guns, one was tested to destruction too. Like any firearm you had to service it, so after a battle you should clean and lubricate a gun by doing a full field strip. Also it wasn’t uncommon if you had a broken weapon they would just re-issue you another one and send the broken one back to an armory to be serviced and re-issued again

      I have to say that yes it does look vulnerable but in fact it really isnt.

As for dirt yes it is vulnerable when the action is open but it cycles so fast that that is almost a non issue and the only time that it is when reloading. If you wanted a more in depth mud test check out in range tv they did a mud test and it did pretty well

      Your fingering skills, the stated rate on paper is 116rpm but since it is semiautomatic only your fingers limit it and I don't think you would actually be able to out race the gun. The cycle rate of a p08 is insanely fast which is why no full autos were commercially produced as the fire rate was to high and uncontrollable. It's also the reason that the magizine follower spring is so heavy to keep up with the action.

Also on a side note the reason a 9mm Parabellum cartridge has such a long nose in comparison to other rounds of the same size like 9mm kurtz (380) or 9mm Makarov is because of the steep feed angle of the p08, why the world kept the cartridge and design even though it was made only for this pistol I dont know but I'm glad they did so I dont have to hunt down rare ammo

      E. P The toggle lever attached to the bolt of an actual Luger only moves once the barrel is in the rearmost position. The round knobs on the side of the bolt toggle are pushed back and follow the rounded sides of the frame.
      The video is a very simple diagram of the mechanics of a Luger, however the timing and actual locking mechanism are off.
