1.0 out of 5 stars accuracy, March 18, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Luger Handbook (Paperback)
Did not buy it: if the sample pages show that Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) is spelled as Deutche Waffen und Munitionsfabrik I know to look elsewhere for accuracy. Do your homework!

1.0 out of 5 stars The Luger Handbook, October 21, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Luger Handbook (Paperback)
Very inaccurate in descriptions of various models, proofmarks, manufacturers, etc. The author does not even properly describe the basic operation of this type of weapon, he calls it a blowback when it is a recoil operated weapon. Such a basic error gives you some idea of the rest of the book. In defense of the book it is after all a handbook but it should be accurate.

4.0 out of 5 stars A compact guide for basic identification of Luger pistols., September 4, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Luger Handbook (Paperback)
While seemingly brief at only 91 pages, this pocket sized volume serves as a remarkably functional beginners guide to identifying Luger pistols. Utilizing a 'process of elimination', the reader chooses from among various possible markings/features which are displayed in flow chart format. Based upon the reader's choices the trail then leads on to one or more specific pages which display information about the probable model the reader is attempting to identify. Very detailed and well designed, this is the ideal 'back pocket' companion to accompany any potential Luger buyer to gun shows or Luger showrooms. Kudos to Mr. Davis.
