Jon Russell joined Mansfield from Barnsley in July after a loan spell last season
Impressive Mansfield ended Luton's unbeaten start to the season with a comprehensive 5-2 victory.
Nathan Moriah-Welsh's brace and a Louis Reed goal put the Stags firmly in control at the break.
Any hopes of a Luton comeback were ended when Jon Russell bagged a brace of his own before the hour.
Nahki Wells scored two late consolation goals for Luton but it was too little, too late.
Mansfield made a good start when Moriah-Welsh converted Russell's knockdown in the 17th minute.
The winger doubled the advantage with a thunderous effort from just inside the box 11 minutes later.
Reed extended Mansfield's lead on the stroke of half-time with a first-time shot from Moriah-Welsh's cross.
Russell made it four with a simple finish after Luton failed to clear their lines two minutes into the second half and the Jamaican wrapped it up when he picked out the top corner from Michael Smith's header in the 56th minute.
Wells scored a consolation penalty with 13 minutes to go, before adding another from distance in stoppage time.
