LUGER PO8

[vinosd773]

what caliber was that?

[john117dude]

People can call me a "Nazi lover" or "Nazi worshiper" all they want, but I like to call myself "One who is very interested in WWII axis (Mainly German/Nazi) weapons, artifacts, etc."

[guss957]

>implying all German soldiers were Nazis

>headdesk.jpg

[polishpio0neer1]

Ive never had mine jam like that? ur clip might be worn so the sencond shell pops up before first action is complete

[killdude26]

I hate the nazis for what they did poor poor Jews if you didn't know. Nazis are gone that's good the only thing I like are there guns everything else I hate fucking bastards. And no I'm not a Jew. If I was a nazi I would help all the Jews I could. Like I said bastards.

[aceofclubskid]

i want one soooo much!

[bleachwad]

my dad has a Luger P08 that was made in 1916, but he promised to pass it down to my brother

[CommanderLukas]

i want one

[popsnacks2]

when my grandpa returned from ww2 he was part of the men who stormed hitlers hq he captured a luger and a swastika from hitlers hq. when he returned from the war he still had the luger and when my dad was born in 60 somthin my grandma took the ammo the original ammo from ww2 brought it to the police station to be demolished for the safety of her children we have the luger today but it probably isnt reliable

[SuperJumper94]

@popsnacks2 how come ur american and the americans didnt get to berlin the russians did! so u cant b tellin the truth! sorry had to correct u

[popsnacks2]

@SuperJumper94 ......my grandpa wouldnt lie, neither would my dad,we have two swastikas from the hq, also one officers helmet two wehermact and plenty medals AND my personal favorite a german luger with matching serial numbers. all german, also for american, b 17 flak pants ammo belt m 17 gas mask p47 thunderbolt bomb drop handle, we were suppose to have those ship binoculars but they were stolen from my grandpa on his return trip...my g-pa also had a german officers binoculars he took fromhim

[SuperJumper94]

@popsnacks2 yea but how!!! the russians got into his headquarters not the americans! + hitlers hq was in the russian zone!

[popsnacks2]

@SuperJumper94 ik but they did get there after which means he was there and could have taken something....look lets call it even alright

[SuperJumper94]

@SuperJumper94 ok dude peace out!!

[paintballman79]

what does it shoot a 9 or a 7 or a 8 mm

[SpeedyNeutrino43]

I've collected and fired military firearms for 25 years, including the P08 Luger. Yes, grtorrest, there were "Nazi" guns....many of mine are stamped all over with the small eagle and swastika, including one very scarce G-41 rifle. The luger is great to view and handle because of the generally fine machine work but as a battle implement the tolerances are too close ...even a couple of grains of sand puts them out of commission.

[NonStopWeapon]

Damn nice PO8

[12457810able]

hey if u have a cabelas near u they may have one or 2

[polaris30000]

Anyone know where a person can get one of those?

[skopthom]

I wish great grandpa had got one of these. But he found some watches and a nazi-flag:/

I really want one:D

[thrillrider96]

haha jamed the first shot..

[TheSlayder1000]

My grandfather took a German po8 luger from an officer In ww2 Its a very nice sidearm for a 9mm but later in the war it was replaced with the Walther p38 due to the luger was too expensive

[brier00]

@theslayder, they also were replaced because they had a bad or no safety switch. they were a harm to those who carried them. my great-grand pa brought one back, and gave it to my grandma, but he didnt care what happened to it. so she sold it for a 357. magnum.

[d1341994]

it looks a bit like the nambu type 14

[silver760]

Very nice example you have there,shame about the stoppage after the first shot,are you using reloaded ammunition? If I owned such a weapon,I would never put reloaded ammunition through it,its not that I dont trust my reloading skills,I just would not do it out of principal,I just believe it would be "Below" the weapon !! ; ) .I'd only feed her on the best ammunition and clean her with the best lubes and materials,so she would last me my lifetime aswell as many more to come.

[magicanine]

awesome luger ftw and luger isn't a nazi gun its a standard sidearm for the German army during the world wars. not all Germans were nazi

[mamagola]

two of u are talking shit

[residentevil4freek]

omfg dis gun sux it wuznt in cod4

[072925126]

Does it always jam on the first round?

[loku1125]

isn't that a nazi gun

[TommyVercettti]

it is

[bcsk8ter]

its the best pistol ever

[grtorrest]

Used by german army not a "nazi gun", guns have no political ideology, people do. P-08 pistol was standard sidearm of the german army since before WW I, so you may also say is an "imperial gun"

[1488DanielSS]

@grtorrest God Point !

[sabbathmusic]

DAMN REMINGTON CRAP AMMO!

[XBOXORANGEJUICE]

Lugers were the best pistols in ww2. This usually happens when you fire blanks or lightly packed rounds through them.

[Kylef7735]

yea if you like a 9mm the p08 holds 8 9mm in the mag

id rather have a 1911 with 7 45 rounds in the mag

[XBOXORANGEJUICE]

yeah, but the way the lugers were made is what gives them the upper hand. Each one hand made which was a slow and expensive process that eventually led to the quicker to make p38.

[Kylef7735]

so just because somthing is slow and expensive to make it is better ?

thats y the germans lost the tank war

panzers were so complex they couldnt make very many of them

there were 4 shermans to every panzer in ww2

[XBOXORANGEJUICE]

Obviously you dont know much about ww2. I am a german ww2 reenactor and i can tell you that the main reason germans lost the war is 1) they ran out of fuel for the tanks and vehicles. 2) they designed too many different types of tanks instead of sticking with one idea. The sherman was a piece of crap. The only good thing was they could make more of them than the germans could. The luger was better. Do some research and read up on history of tanks and weapons.

[Kylef7735]

i aggree that the sherman was crap

but the complexity of the panzers is what caused their downfall

so more complex is not better

sometimes simple is great

[dodgingaces]

somthing so beutiful made by somthing so vile

[SamEEE12]

Oh good, hate is a nice thing. Dickhead.

[dodgingaces]

im hating intolerant genocidal nazis not germans....and you kinda turned your comment against yourself for being sarcastic and calling me a dickhead...

[Treblaine]

This pistol was first made in 1898... when Hitler was not even 10 years old.

Nazi Germany didn't appear till 1933... 35 years later. You can't dismiss everything German as "vile" even if it was made long before (or even long after) the Nazis are/were running the country.

It is a HUGE mistake to think that fascism could only have taken hold in Germany... without eternal vigilance the same evil could take hold in my country or even yours!

[Treblaine]

Who? Ze Germans?

I wouldn't let anything like that get in the way of appreciating fine German engineering.

[Sprahcket]

Of course, first thing it does is jam.

[GermanSniper666]

luger or p38?

[Barbabietola00]

luger p08

[Richti93]

a luger p 08

the p38 looks more like a normal pistol ^^

[Thespartan18]

I like this gun but its so damn expensive.

[ClassicFIHD]

Not thay bad. If you search around a bit between 700 to 1200 bucks.

[bjggjb]

@ClassicFIHD I found a very nice Finnish contract PO8 for $545.00 just 3 months ago. The owner thought it was a postwar police rebuild and I didn't want to disilusion him. So yes, affordable Lugers are out there if you're willing to wheel and deal a bit.

[Armyof9000]

i have found that the best way to make sure your luger doesnt jam is to not load the entire magazine. Simply load it all the way, then take away a round. Always works with most German pistols.

[Treblaine]

Hmm, maybe just new mag springs are needed.

Maybe the Luger's reputation for unreliability don't so much stem from their inherent design but how people are still shooting some models that are almost ONE HUNDRED YEARS OLD!

Even if they were only 50 years old, they'd just get worn out merely sitting in a gun case most of the time.

I know the Colt 1911 got a reputation for unreliability in the 1970's from how many pistols had been in continuous use since the 1940's and even the 1910's!

[Armyof9000]

You know what, I never thought about that. There are Luger models out there from 1908 and 1909 that are 101 and 100 years old being fired today.

[ienjoysk8boarding]

no just the ultimate pistol

[9rey9h0st]

Any body know if the 9mm luger is a different size then the 9x19 standard?

[Bat242]

No its the same. 9mm Luger has many other names.

9mm Luger

9x19mm

9mm NATO

9mm Parabellum

etc.

etc.

[chrismc410]

9mm Luger IS the standard 9mm. has many names as stated

[AMGFromHell]

that's a .22 round. Not a real Luger sorry. 1 star

[hayden33533]

it is a 9mm made in 1942. the 22 rounds in the background are for the rifle. get it right

[zenjej24]

lol jam on the first shot XD

[82abnoff]

My Luger is old. On that left side where you have that safety, mine is in Russian or Cyrillic.

[isaiahman1234567]

nice jam and is that a 22

[Garron81]

... are you retarded? its a 9mm. Wow.

[isaiahman1234567]

well they make 22 ones ass hole and thers a bunch of 22 rounds next to his arm

[Garron81]

Oh, wasnt looking over there... sorry...

[hayden33533]

it is a 9mm bro .

the .22 rounds in the back ground are for the rifle ypou can see.

[isaiahman1234567]

yea woard up

[iamcondescending]

is jamming a common problem with this gun?

also where can i buy one?

[digiwolff]

an unfired bullet got jammed? haha

[x3x900]

hay warner520,

does this pistol in this video shoot the .22LR caliber round?

[Migs4000]

thats wat i thought, it looks like LRN bullet.

but the recoil still looks like the same old luger

[hayden33533]

reloaded ammo . RN Lead

[hayden33533]

shoots 9mm is 1942 made .

[9rey9h0st]

there were 22. target models made during the war as well to improve accuracy and save money during training

[emeraldbay301]

Luger and P-38 undoubtedly some of the most awesome guns ever made

[roteroktober82]

mafiosi like those, theyr good 2 hide

[purewhiteman]

What's the deal with the shiity ammo

[ClassicFIHD]

It's not because of the ammo. These guns need yo be very clean and well lubricated.

[Layedo]

colt .357 python, you german shit lips; is the best handgun ever made! so suck a adolf hitler gina` d-bags

[Firetornados]

They are talking about their favorite weapons, not the best weapons.

I'd disagree with you anyways, colt .357 is higly inaccurate from even small distances. P08 in that case, is very accurate, but not so destructiful maybe.

[ClassicFIHD]

I have both, the P08 and the Colt Trooper MKIII and agree. I love both guns, but its really amazing the P08 is an accurate as it is with none-adjustable front and rear fixed sites. Since I shoot both .38 and .357s in the Colt you have to decide which one you want to sight the gun in for.

[Ihatetoprocrastinate]

jam :-(

[shanetomlin]

the luger is one of my favorite hand guns.

[blicblak]

German made, all the wayed

[FishHuntEatRepeat]

Germans made/make some great weapons. I said this before, but the Luger is truly a peice of art.

[MinisterKGB]

do have the "snail clip"

[kurdt102]

stoeger 22lr

[1232shooter]

is that a .22?

[TimothyGatewood]

HA looks like you got the garand thumb

Naw but seriously very nice weapon you have there

[thearyan3]

I always wanted one of these. I have some pesky jewish kikes next door and I want to use this kind of weapon on them.

14/88

Sieg Heil! Heil Hitler!

[efleischer]

haha still crackin up you can borrow mine.just kiddin still funny

[mathias1211]

well that weapon may be one of the weapons in the world that have killed the most jews but its not so funny to joke about

[mats000]

is that a SMLE next to you ?

[mrehagunay]

dikti lan tabanca:)

[st4r3k]

god i love the luger, it is such a smoth firearm

[tallfuzzyone]

lol yea nice smooth firearm, thats why it stovepipe jammed on the first shot lol, i still want one tho

[warner520]

no the first round fired but the second must have flicked up and got jammed . if you look at the video you will see the round that i cleared is still unfired

[bogbrush88]

He might be firing some commercial American 9mm ammo, which is under-pressured compared with the German military ammo this gun was originally designed for. It will cycle better with standard European-spec 9mm (which is equivalent to +P or +P+ in America).

[Slikhedgehog]

Did that first round jam or does the luger do some insane mechanism thingy inside (never fired one).

[howitgarn]

These only had 3 screws that held the entire gun together!! Amazing piece of German weaponary

[WarLordLux]

If your amazed from this fact take a look at the Mauser C96.the only screw in the gun was to

hold the grips.the entire mechanic is sticked together.

[tenorbanjo4]

Is it a Mauser military model? Thanks

[warner520]

yes it is , was made in 1942 and is a bring back from the middle east by australian digger

[Acid4Blood]

A masterfull piece of enginering.

Parabellum.

[tangram18]

lugers are funn well look fun and they look cool

[suncontrol]

wrong writing in the tags! this is no poet, but a P08!

[bohica31812]

sweet sidearm
