Talk:Cuckoo in a Dark Forest

Otto von Kuckuck's Luger

This pistol isn't an ordinary P08. It was discussed on Russian web sites and the only guess was that it is a converted Luger Carbine, like this one:

A rare Luger carbine 9x19mm

But it's a guess, not a accurate answer. Greg-Z (talk) 09:11, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

I'm guessing Luger carbines are pretty rare though, and to modify one into a more common Luger pistol is just idiotic, from a financial and a shooting standpoint. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:13, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

Yes, the same objection was in the discussion that I mentioned. But no better guess was proposed. In any case, the movie pistol is not a standard Luger but some modified version. Greg-Z (talk) 14:08, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

Looking at the section in front of the trigger guard, how about this gun is some kind of weird mix between a Luger P08 and a Mauser Pocket Pistol? Just a quick thought, PeeWee055 (talk) 11:40, 19 August 2013 (EDT)

And the Award for "Most Unresponsible Handling of a Gun on Screen"...

...goes to Otto Kuckuck in “Cuckoo in a Dark Forest” who manages to position himself in front of a rifle while the person holding it has her finger on the trigger!
