OP "Lager, folks."
Yeah, some people get their courage from a lager, TEd Rem. Some from a luger*. But once the bottle or the bullet chamber is empty, so is their courage. :)
* Luger. From Wikipedia [with photo]
Although obsolete in many ways today, the Luger is still sought after by collectors both for its sleek design, good accuracy, great durability and to some extent by its connection to Nazi Germany. In Switzerland, the OP00 is still being used in sports shooting events because of its accuracy.
Production of the Luger P-08 ended when Walther refurbished a lot of Lugers in 1999 for the pistol's 100 years anniversary.
Thousands of Lugers were brought back as souvenirs by American GIs after World War II, and are still in circulation. Modern look-alike pistols are built by several companies.
