One of my favorites is the artillery
Here is a quick read
http://www.lugerlp08.com/the%20artillery%20luger%20-%20introductory%20article.htm
I just think they are unique, a niche gun that the short barreled rifle of today.
Basically,
A luger, with a longer barrel, adjustable front and rear sight( with a rear sight that is a small ladder type sight (graduated out to 800m with even a slight offset to compensate for the spin imparted to the bullet!), a cool holster, cleaning rod/takedown/sight tool and a stock that easily mounts and is stored as part of the kit. Then drum magazine for trench warfare/ storm troopers etc. even used in aerial fights, shooting plane engines!
Shooting 9 mm out to. 800? Gotta be minute of barn accuracy!
For me, the Swiss Army knife solution - weapon system but of ww1.
This is my shooter, year 1917, 32 round drum mag installed. The rest of my aftermarket/ non original leather/ stock etc not shown. It also has aftermarket accoutrements ( stock/ holster etc.) - fine for shooting. Otherwise a # match gun minus magazine. The way these work, the serial # is on nearly every part. ( and there are a lot) of the gun. Sights, grips, mags, barrel, frame, levers, catches, EVERYTHING! So, u don't want to break anything as a 1$ part will cost u 1000's$ in value. Anyway my 'shooter'

This is my baby, a 1915, all match #, stock etc. drum, 1 gen, appropriate for year.
