The Pistole Parabellum M1908 or Parabellum-Pistole (Pistol Parabellum),popularly known as the Luger, is an iconic, toggle locked, recoil operated, semi-automatic pistol. The design was patented by Georg J. Luger in 1898 and produced by German arms manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken(DWM) starting in 1900; it was an evolution of the 1893 Hugl Borchardt designed C-93.

The Luger was made popular by its use by Germany during World War I and World War II. Though the Luger pistol was first introduced in 7.65x22mm parabellum, it is notable for being the pistol for which the 9x19mm parabellum (also known as the 9mm Luger) cartridge was developed.
