Germans did use the p38, far as im aware the luger was discontinued before ww2 and was replaced with the p38. Lots of germans kept their lugers instead of changing sidearms though.

edit: yup was being replaced around 1938

[quote:03d5a]The Pistole 08 was the standard side arm for the German Army during both world wars, but was being replaced by the Walther P38 by 1938. By that time the Luger pistol was simply too expensive for military use due to its high standard of manufacturing. Another reason for the demise of the Luger pistol's military use may have been its sensitivity to dirt and dust resulting in malfunctions. The rarity of this weapon made it a sought souvenir and trophy by Allied forces for its accuracy and superiority to the P38.[/quote:03d5a]
