This video focuses on the Luger pistol adopted by the Dutch East Indies Army (KNIL) as the M11 in 1911. It details the procurement history, including batches from DWM and Vickers, and discusses the specific features of the M11 pattern, such as its 4-inch barrel, 9x19mm Parabellum chambering, and unique unit marking systems (frame engraving, brass plaques on the trigger guard and frame). The video also showcases rare accessories like an original KNIL M11 holster and a double magazine pouch. It highlights the transition in German firearm production post-WWI and the logistical challenges faced by the KNIL in equipping its forces.
