HEKE is an unknown quantity at this point
This artillery Luger model really did exist. It was mostly used during the World War 1. It had longer barrel than a normal Luger had. Its drum-like magazine was able to hold 32 9mm Parabellum rounds. The fire rate of the weapon was really high and it didn`t weight much. Therefor its fire bursts were hard to control. By theway did you know that the Luger was a prestage of sub-machinegun?
