The ammuntion or the weapon? If weapon, which one? The Luger has a barrell slightly less than 4 inches and the length from tip of barrel to back of top receiver is 8-1/4 inches. From top of gun to bottom of grip(with clip) is 5-1/2 inches. Of course, the grip is slopped so it naturally fits your hand and points as easy as pointing your finger. The 9mm Parabellum (Luger) cartridge is about 1inch and 1/8 inch tall and is 9mm in diameter which is the same as .38 inch. The Luger holsterwas completely enclosed with a cover to keep out dirt--the close tolerances of the gun made it vulnerable to dirt jamming the mechanism(unlike the US Colt M1917 that could be dropped in mud and still fire). It is the basic shape of a right triangle that measures 9-7/8 inch tall by approx 7-1/2 inch wide along the top.
