[edit] Behind the scenes

The Parabellum-Pistole (Pistol Parabellum), popularly (but incorrectly) known as the Luger, is a toggle locked, recoil operated, semi-automatic pistol. The design was patented by Georg J. Luger in 1898 and produced by German arms manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) starting in 1900; it was an evolution of the Hugo Borchardt designed C-93.

Due to it's use by Nazi German officers, it usually appears being used by a German officer in the movies and some video games.
