A *very* nice score

Hope I do not get "tarred & feathered"...!

I just do not "get" the Post War HK lugers at all...

Why are they so collectable ?....when then were just assembled after the factory had been liberated by the Allies...and posibly sold in PX stores (at least the externally numbered guns, according to R. Gibson on page 69).

These guns were not issued to any fighting men, did not go into battle, were not captured on the battle field, not recovered from a downed airplane,...etc...

What makes them collectible and so pricey...?

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
