Do you want to take down the picture of the black luger since we know have MPM2008's images on the page?--Alienqueen11 02:32, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Sure. That should be policy. -MT2008 04:05, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

I can think of another movie with the Luger, that is The Land That Time Forgot. Also the Bergman MP-18 is in that movie (anachronistic because the movie is set in 1916 while the U.S. is still "neutral") as well as Mauser 98 rifles and a Webley revolver.

I see the image below in the page, this is not a Luger but an airsoft Wei E-Tech replica. Charly Driver

Hahahaha. Thanks Charly Driver for the info! :D Now even more reason to 'fix' all pages that link to this pic and delete it. MoviePropMaster2008 06:11, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

I too think that this picture should be deleted and the pages with this picture fixed. This is the Internet Movie Firearms Database, not the Internet Movie Firearms and Airsoft Weapons Database. - Kilgore 15:50, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

.45 Luger Pistol

I have found a picture of the famous Luger Pistol chambered in .45 ACP from 1908. It is the only known .45 Luger to still exist today. The other pistol, Serial No. 1, was used in the 1908 pistol test in which it was tested along-side the Colt M1905 Pistol. The original was thrown away after the tests and the other remaning Lugers were either lost or destroyed. This .45 Luger Pistol remains the last of its kind to this day. - Kilgore

Actually, I remember hearing about a gunsmith who was handcrafting a limited number (around one hundred) of .45 Lugers according to original specifications. However, the high price tags ($10,000-$100,000) meant that the Lugers were more pieces of jewelry than weapons. -Anonymous

That may be very expensive just for a reproduction, but compare that to the original .45 Luger, which was recently valued at more than $1 Million. - Kilgore

The Famous Luger P08 Pistol, Serial No. 2, chambered in .45 ACP.

They also made a .45 ACP carbine, link: http://www.weaponscache.com/forum/pistols/2171-worlds-most-expensive-handgun-45-acp-luger-carbine.html

Gold-plated Lugers in movies

I seem to remember a scene from an old science-fiction/monster movie, maybe from the fifties or sixties, name unknown, in which a gold-plated Luger with the snail-drum mounted (also gold-plated) figured prominently towards the end. I had thought it was "The Day The World Ended" - I'm pretty sure it was that sort of "post-apocalyptic" plot-line, with mutated humans, etc. - but that was in b&w, while the flick I'm thinking of had to be in color, or the "golden" Luger would never have been noticable.

Unfortunately, I saw it so long ago (early seventies) that I can't recall anything else about it and have never seen it since.

Does anyone recognise that extremely-vague description?
