Historical Context

Designed by Georg Luger in 1898 and manufactured by the German arms factory Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) starting in 1900, the Luger P08 became infamous. This model is notable as it was the pistol for which the 9x19mm Parabellum cartridge was developed, though early versions used the 7.65x21mm Parabellum caliber. The term Parabellum originates from the ancient Latin maxim, ”Si vis pacem, para bellum” (If you want peace, prepare for war).
