Back in 1980, Randall Gibson authored the most comprehensive writing on the Krieghoff Parabellum to date. Packed with technical information and high quality photos, The Krieghoff Parabellum instantly became a favorite of Luger collectors resulting in a 2nd Edition published in 1988.

Now, in conjunction with the 100th Anniversary of the Krieghoff Model 08 Parabellum and the Limited Edition continuation of the original production line, The Krieghoff Parabellum, 3rd Edition is now available through our online store.

The Third Edition of this popular book contains the extensive information on the history of the Krieghoff Gun Company, Krieghoff Luger variations and detailed technical information on each model. Hundreds of photographs illustrate the craftsmanship and artistry that went into the Parabellum pistols, including custom made pistols. New to the Third Edition is “The Final Chapter”, which outlines the painstaking process of restarting the Model 08 production line. Extensive research and recreation of the methods used in the original production line result in an authentic continuation of the production line halted some sixty years ago.

Each copy of The Krieghoff Parabellum sold through Krieghoff International will be signed and dated by Dieter Krieghoff, fourth generation of the Krieghoff gun making family and owner of Krieghoff International.
