- The Luger is one of the most iconic handguns of the 20th century. It was used by Germany during both World Wars and continued on to become one of the more collectable and desirable handguns ever produced. I take out my WWI era German DWM made 9mm Artillery Luger with stock for some shooting fun.

59 and 54 no matchy
The toggle is locked to the rear thus obscuring the 54. If you look at the first picture of the serial number under the barrel you'll see the whole serial number is 5954. When you draw the toggle back and lock it, the 54 is obscured by the side plate. So yes, the numbers are matchy. :)

Two more people have liked your post. LOL I understand your post, but the two people who have liked it crack me up. Sometimes you look at the actions of folks and think "Wow". Some people can't help themselves. Hehe.
Military Arms Channel they could be 1911 fanboys
+KRYS007 LOL
I love Lugers, no matter how many years go by they will always be one of the most mechanically beautiful guns ever designed.

In Slo-mo, it really does look like an artillery piece, as everything moves out, then back into battery ... By modern standards, it looks kinda funky, but 110 years on, still works a treat ...
My man
still good for killing?
Will Eugene @Lugerman wants to hear from you! Spend it you'll make more!
Hands down, the most beautiful piece of art when it's down to handguns
I've always like Lugers style. They really are iconic..
check out Ruger Mark IV Standard.. they look VERY similar as Luger and only for 300 buxs..
The artillery Luger has been one of my dream guns since I was about 10 years old
Yes, me too. But I have my hands on one about 20 years agoo. I was weapons safety controller on a competition. An older gentleman took one out of its case. He asked after my check, if I may give it back to him, twice! I hesitated, but had too. All was very keen on to look at it and handle it. This guy was a proud owner of this gun. I should have run with it🤣.
I had a toy version as a kid, loved it :)
When I was 8yrs old we visited my uncle near Merced, CA and he was out in his backyard workshop working on his WW2 Luger. I watched him take apart a magazine, set the spring down on a thin, flat piece of metal and mark the length with a scribe. The I watched him measure 1.25" longer and drill a couple holes and screw in a pair of small hooks, then he stretched out the spring and hooked it onto the hooks, heated it with a torch until it glowed red, then he dropped it into a bucket of oil. He told me this was to ''Refresh the spring tension''. I was 8, what did I know - lol but I remember watching him with peaked interest. He was my favorite uncle and I loved to visit him, he was always doing some interesting project, circa 1965.
One of the most beautiful firearms ever designed
As Ian McCollum said in one of his videos, Georg Luger got so many things just right on his revision of the Borchardt pistol. There's no big evolutionary chain between the Borchardt and the Luger. Kinda jumped from one to the other, then got small tweaks to the final versions. Also keep in mind that the reason the P-38 was developed was due more to the cost of the Luger, rather than it becoming obsolescent.
Cost AND time to manufacture.
P38s were a lot faster to turd out as well.
@@notpulverman9660
Those are pretty closely related though. Time is money, after all. Most of the cost of most things is someone's time to make it.
And the P-38 isn't even a bad gun, the Luger is just *that* good.
My ar pistol identifies as a luger, can I put a stock on it now?
Just call it a luger and you should be good.
My Hi-Point identifies as desert eagle.
My 9mm AR SBR shoots 9mm Luger, so did I waste $200 SBRing it?
Or your stock can identify itself as a brace.
Ha Ha! Funny. If your AR was made 50 years ago and classifies as a Curio and Relic, Yes you can!
Easily my absolute favorite military pistol of all time, the P08 Luger. You just stepped it up a notch with this numbers matching masterpiece! You got the holy grail right there brother, congrats!! Thank you very much for the drool fest!
Thank you. I do love my Lugers.
Another pistol on my dream list... right up there with an American Eagle Luger
American Eagle Luger?
A pre-war Luger intended for export to the USA. Rare.
@@silvermediastudio they are not rare ... pleny around
@@spangy8405 look up to might see it
"Those rocket arties are inaccurate, but fuck they will ruin your day if they get it right"
LOVE YOUR VIDEO, I FEEL THE SAME WAY ABOUT LUGERS AS YOU DO. I first got to shoot a P08 back in 1964 when I was 12, it belonged to my older brother who was 16 at the time. Dad was a WW2 VETERAN of 9 Campaigns in the Atlantic Theater (8/41-8/45). I have a standard 4" army model, years ago I had 3 of them at same time (1915 DWM bring back, matching, 1940 S/42 Russian capture matching except grips and mag, original Mauser commercial made in 1960's on Swiss tooling. I had to sell them when in 2008 I was laid off with 19 years service with a FILM PHOTOGRAPHY company (TECHNOLOGY change). LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. Thinking of buying a complete upper assembly for a Artillery Luger, it's almost $1800 which is a little Pricey but I'm 71 and LOVE LUGERS and the Artillery one is the Ultimate Luger to have especially if you LOVE shooting Lugers and being a ACCURACY FREAK like the Swiss who were the FIRST COUNTRY TO ADOPT THE LUGER IN 1900 BUT IN 30 caliber Luger, 9mm hadn't been developed yet. It came out in 1902. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK 😉😃😄😃😄
IMO one of the most beautiful pistols ever produced, a true iconic firearm.
Was told that the rear sight cants to the left as the sight is adjusted up. This counteracted the right hand spin of the rifling at that distance. Very well made gun, a work of art.
I've always had a thing for shoulder stocked handguns, not because they're useful, but just because their cool!
Love the Luger. My dad has the regular short barrel version (family heirloom), all numbers matching. He'd like to get the artillery version, the old nutter. Will need to look into those magazines, though - thanks for the tip!
As a native German I appreciate that many US guys like the Luger pistols.
US and German arms, invented and made, are high quality guns and still working well even decades after those were made.
I collect German and classic US small arms and got rid of all guns not made in the USA and Germany after 1945..
Greetings from Germany.....
Thank you. I really enjoy watching the old firearms.
The dub step and slo mo of this german pistol just really brought back some memories of "sprockets with Dieter" for some reason. LOL My mind is special, I know.
THAT is an awesome handgun
Always thought Lugar made some of the most aesthetic hand guns going!
A great candidate for appendix conceal carry..😎
I wish you shot the artillery Luger and the regular Luger at a stack of paper, to see if the longer barrel really gives it much more penetration/power....
Love the slo-mo camera work that you have been doing
Thank you. I like to show how the guns function and slow motion is a great way to do that.
Loving the longer videos that have been coming out lately!
So you can put a stock on any Luger? I thought only specific ones were exempt
Thank You for Time well spent!
Great video MAC, thanks for another piece of military surplus.
Your assembly and disassembly very helpful thank you!
Now that gun is in good shape! Looks almost brand new!! Good score!
Great Luger, one of my favorites as well
Really liking the reviews on the older guns. Not that modern gun reviews are bad, just cool to see how modern firearms have evolved.
Everyone talks about modern guns. I keep promising myself I will do more on the historic guns in my collection. While everyone else is singing the praises of the Gen 5 Glock, I would rather talk about something interesting (at least to me anyway). :D
MAC the monster bit made my day! Good work on the video, love your channel
Thank you my friend.
That Monster plug, just beautiful.
The Luger simply fits super comfortably in my hand, great ergonomic for something made over 80 years ago.
Oh besides that, I really like your shirt.
That's some good long distance accuracy. I like it
Like it or not, .40 is not dropping in popularity. 9mm is more popular, but .40 is still a very popular round.
Most fans of velocity are gonna go over to 357sig thing they wanna spend the cash, and don't wanna go 10mm.
357sig just has more lightweight boolits.
Yeah I like the .357 sig pretty good, but I'm a big 10mm fan. It's definitely my favorite pistol round. It does have problems with over penetration, but this can be easily solved with high velocity lighter weight bullets (in the 130-140 grain range). The biggest thing 9mm has going for it is price.
Finally got around to joining Patreon and contributing Tim. Glad I can help!
Love that artillery Luger. I been seeing a few on Gunbroaker lately and your video is not helping me in wanting to get one lol. She is beautiful and enjoyed seeing it in action.
Thank you, Jon! They're not getting any cheaper, so if you want one and you have the money I would jump on it.
Military Arms Channel your welcome it's my pleasure to help out.
Trust me if I did I would but I am working on saving up for one. Though the next firearm on my list is that CHPS 40 at Copper. That order she be going through next payday!
We will still have some of the CHiPs guns, so you should be good. It's a neat piece of history too.
I have the 4" brl.and it's within 300 of your serial number.It's one of my absolute favorites-really enjoyed this vid.
Grateful for the video
Epic slowmotion and pov view
That bit with the monster energy drink cracked me up , I about fell of the toilet !
That techno music goes surprisingly well with the Luger slo-mo.
Thanks for another great video.
Excellent Classic Handgun review! No problems here with Mec-Gar Magazines in my standard 1936 S/42 Mauser made Luger. I've found standard pressure 124 grn FMJ reloads made with Alliant Green Dot Powder very nicely simulate actual 9mm WWI and WWII loadings and function perfectly. Missed out on buying a 6 inch Navy Luger, but maybe someday I'll get one of those.
Loving the added music. Keep it coming
Another amazing thing about the Luger/P.08 is unlike almost any other military sidearm from 1908 and earlier you can walk in just about anywhere that sells ammo and find something that works in it! Georg Luger not only made the Luger, he created the 9mmx19 cartridge for the P.08! The Luger fires the most common pistol ammunition in the world.
I have two P.08s, a pristine, all matching, almost unfired 1941 byf (Mauser) and a FrankenLuger built with parts from 15 pistols. Of the major parts, the frame and toggle assembly are about 1913-14 DWM and the upper receiver and barrel are from a 1938 S/42 Mauser. As a starving student I bought "Frankie" in 1975, the cheapest, ugliest Luger in Phoenix, Az, but the darn thing functioned reliably when I took it out in the desert. What a joy it's been all these years and it still functions well today, using Mec-Gar mags and even Federal Champion valuepack (probably because I never changed the springs). After many thousands of rounds only one part broke over the decades, the big axle pin at the back of the toggle, an easy fix. This pistol continued to fire reliably with the pin snapped in two in the middle since the pin is captured and can't come out. I was impressed, you can't kill these things! I have never fired the byf which I bought in 1999 but think it's time now. It really looks brand new, I think it was kept in a drawer most of its life.
Such a gorgeous firearm!
Very nice P-08! I really like as well!
The slow mo was awesome. Note that it ejects the cartridge straight up.
The Luger is an excellent pistol, every gun collection should have one!
That thing is sweet!!! Would love to have that piece of history
I bought one of the legends air guns at your suggestion! it's a ton of fun! Keep up the great vids and keep pushing for that Monster sponsorship!
You both did good! Thanks for sharing :)
Nice piece of history.
Nice and professional intro. to the Luger concept. Also top notch shooting skills.
Thanks, bring more stuff to us gun guys. Jess, Arkansas.
Hey Tim, morning from behind enemy lines, California :(
Good morning, you're up early! Are yo digging an escape tunnel? :) Hopefully we'll liberate California one day.
Military Arms Channel Good Morning do you really think that .40 sucks?
booo hahaha ...everyone knows .40 sucks...jk
No, I just like having fun with it though. The only thing I have against .40 is that it took 10mm away from us. Fortunately .40's popularity is dropping off and now more and more companies are bringing 10mm's back to market which makes me happy.
Military Arms Channel yeah your right .10 mm is no joke it's a very good round. The price is a bite high here in crook county Commie-nois
That shirt is honest AND cool!
Nice pistol! I use the 115 gr federal with the synthetic jacket; it cycles all of my p.08s well, and leaves virtually no fouling at all!
Love the 9mm cartrage and lugers.
Awesome shirt; beautiful Luger!
Great video Man. I love your channel. I'm a newer subscriber. But I get lots of education an entertainment out of your videos. I love Firearms an everything about them. Like Firearms history ect. I'd love to have a P08 Luger in my collection.
Your shirt read my mind!
I really like the down-the-sights camera angles like at 5:58 ... It helps to get a feel for how the gun is to actually fire, and get a feel for the recoil impulse, too. Besides, an otherwise awesome gun with a wonky sight picture makes for some surprisingly bad practical accuracy, so it can be helpful in any buying decisions.
Favorite thing about the Luger is the giant "you're done" flag that sticks up so there is no mistaking it. (when it locks open, lol)
Bahahahaha, that monster push was hilarious.
Absolutely awesome video mane.
It's a good day when mac ,iv8888 and nutsack put out a video. Can't get nothing done.
Now thats a gorgeous handgun bro Tim....just an awesome thing to own sir!! Mike
Thank you. I agree, it's one of my favorites for sure.
Very enjoyable video about the fascinating Luger. I'm lucky enough to have one. Clean, oiled, and with the high velocity 9mm for which it was designed, my Luger is both reliable and accurate. Nice reminder to join the NRA too. At the moment, an annual membership is just $45, so I purchased several for friends, and of course for my kids too.
Awesome video.
Mac love your videos, just watching some reruns and thinking I’d love to see the artillery piece dropping some rounds out to say 600 meters..
Man I know someone with that same setup on an FN pre ww2 Hi-Power. Stock has a holster and mag pouches fastened to it. Makes a nice 9mm carbine...especially with 32 round mags!
Your shirt is awesome!
I love them.
Man..Lugers are so neat
This gun also has a 32 round ( I believe) snail mag to so awesome
Man that's a nice pistol!!!
I used to have a standard Luger, which I sold years ago when I needed a bit of money for something else. I rather regret selling it now. The one I'd really like to get is the navy version, with the 6 inch barrel and the two-position rear sight, but it's hard to find good ones of that type for less than $4-5K.
That fake monster plug made me lol. Oh, and I would love to see one of these pistols at a distance range. If you ever do take it out to a longer range shoot, would you please upload a video of that?
Great video, keep up the great work!
These things can be fully submerged in mud and still function 100%. Very under rated firearm.
Nice shirt mac!
Nice T-shirt!
Sooo much awesome
Running that suunto traverse alpha? Nice! I have the same one!
Awesome t-shirt!!!
very nice
Love that shirt
Love the shirt!!
Tim, last weekend I had a chance to shoot a Kel-Tec 9mm carbine suppressed. I was surprised by how much recoil it had. I was also surprised by how loud it was, about like a loud hand clap. It did NOT go"pew pew", it went 'bang" but much softer.
+Jim Vandemoter You probably weren't using subsonic ammo.
I'm sure you're right, I didn't see the box so I don't know what i was shooting. whatever it was, I thought it was WAY cool. I hope to have a chance to do it again. Seeing you shoot with a suppressor on you tube and doing for real are entirely different things. It's impossible to appreciate until you've done it yourself.
Hi Tim, Thanx for another Great vid. Luger ... Long Live the Legend! :-) Love my 'Navy' model (5.9" barrel) and looking for an 'Arty' to complete my collection. Thanx again & Semper Fi, ^v^
All joking aside, that monster pipeline punch is really good. I also love the bright pink can, makes me feel like a man.
I know. I was introduced to it this year at the NRA show and got hooked immediately. Until then I never liked the taste of Monster or especially Red Bull. Someone handed me a Pipeline and bam, I was hooked... it's like liquid crack.
love the shirt!!
It's a good idea to use repro mags in Lugers as the wooden bases on the original magazines tend to break with use.
True that. Also the spring issue. I believe the aluminum mag bottoms did start because of the breakage of wood in a trench environment in 1918, but I have never seen an aluminum magazine numbered to an Artillery Luger.
Might be the coolest gun of all time.
Would love to have this they look amazing just don't have enough money. 2 of them are going for auction at the end of the month at the local auction house
Beautifiul machine broseph
I've got a 1915 DWM Luger P-08 with all matching numbers...
Speaking of NFA-exempt stocked-pistols, ever plan on taking a look at a Mauser C96? I own a M1930 Commercial C96 in 7.63x25 Mauser and it is a ton of fun to shoot, it does have a nasty habit of biting your hand though if you aren't holding it right.
I concur on that hammer bite. After a few rounds though you get a different hand hold. :)
Wow! Tim broke his OCD of loading more than 5 round increments.
