You want Ruger to build a Luger?
As high a price as rough shooter grade lifers fetch I can't help but suspect there's a market for a modern copy
We have saa, 1911 and win levergun copies out the wazoo. Why not a Luger?

I don't know if Americans, in this age of the poly-wonders, are willing to put up with the finickiness of a Luger. Many folks forget that the Luger toggle action is carefully balanced and requires a cartridge in a limited pressure range to insure reliable...as well as being keep clean.R.W.Dale said:We have saa, 1911 and win levergun copies out the wazoo.

Tell that to the person who had to replace the one in his father's old Mark I, and the legs of the original assembly were totally warped and bent, and previously had to have them straightened with pliars. They could have designed the rear of it much better; at the very least there could have been recesses in the bolt to prevent the legs from spreading. Note that this pistol has not seen thousands of rounds, primarily because it's never been reliable. I think I've finally solved its issues, but time will tell. I've spent countless hours working on this gun.I disagree. The design of the recoil spring assembly is robust, and not "trashy" at all. It is very well designed and actually overbuilt FOR A .22.
I have thousands and thousands of rounds through one of my MK II's which I bought new in 1991. The recoil spring assembly is original and still running fine.
Right after they build the SR45 or bring back the P90Anyone else think Ruger should build this?
