They’re buying Lugers?More likely some kind of Austrian pistol.

Seems like Smith and Wesson might be a more patriotic choice. The SW M+P 9mm is a nice platform.

I hope you are joking.
If not, here’s the skinny.
9 MM Parabellum is also 9 MM Luger.
9 MM short is also 9 MM Kursk or more widely in the U.S. the .380
Almost all pistols designated 9mm here in the States would be “Lugers” while the 9 mm short or Kursk are most commonly sold as the .380 (Think James Bond and his Walther).
Does that help?

The specification ‘luger’ is for the 9mm Parabellum round.

The most common 9mm round today is the 9mm Parabellum, also called 9mm Luger, that was used in German Luger semis.
