Next German Service Pistol

[Patrick Chadwick]

Villers, I have not yet got a pistol. But if I ever do, then a Luger is the thing. How accurate are they with a ZF fitted?

I have a couple of ZFs, but like JMoore, I haven't found a pistol that has a sensible price as a shooter, instead of an antique. And how would you rate them comparatively as shooters: ARI vs Navy vs standard? I have shot an ARI, and it whipped my arm right back over my head (OK; slight exaggeration, but that's what it felt like) so I am not sure that the extra long barrel is 100% advantageous.

It looks like the Navy version has the longest sightline (am I right?) but they are firmly in the hen's teeth category for rarity.

Patrick to Patrich

I can only shoot the LP (Ari) accurately with the stock. On a good day (which is NEVER during competitions), I´m ok with my Luger `special´...
