Availability: 7 in stock
SKU: PSA-006The Parabellum pistol, or Model 1908 (P08), popularly known as the Luger, is a semi-automatic pistol designed by Georg Luger in 1898 and manufactured from 1900 onwards by Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM). Its most recognizable feature is the knee-lock mechanism: instead of the external slide found on most pistols, a hinged arm folds upwards with each shot. The 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge was developed for it, its name derived from the Latin saying "Si vis pacem, para bellum" ("If you want peace, prepare for war"). Several manufacturers produced over a million units, and it was the standard-issue pistol of the German army in both World Wars, highly prized as a trophy by Allied soldiers.
This replica reproduces the long-barreled version, 30 cm in total length, with a black finish and checkered brown grips. Its mechanism simulates loading and firing, and the magazine is removable.
