After further improvements, the final result became the DWM Pistole-Parabellum (' Luger pistol'). A transitional Borchardt-Luger model in the new caliber was submitted to the Swiss commission in 1898. By shortening the cartridge case, Luger was able to design a narrower grip, and the toggle action required a shorter stroke than in the original Borchardt design.

He developed the 7.65×21mm Parabellum cartridge from the 7.65×25mm Borchardt. Georg Luger was asked by DWM to improve upon the Borchardt pistol.

The committee found the Borchardt too heavy and unwieldy to serve as a military sidearm. In 1897, the C-93 Borchardt pistol was submitted for testing to the Swiss Military Trials Committee. The primary developers of the pistol cartridge were firearms designers Georg Luger and Hugo Borchardt, who developed the round from the earlier 7.65×25mm Borchardt while working at DWM. 30 Luger and 7.65mm Luger) is a pistol cartridge that was introduced in 1898 by German arms manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) for their new Pistol Parabellum.
