Reworks, and the changes in how they are regarded

[David Jackson]

Unfortunately, I think simple economics has a part in what

gets recognized too. While I agree in principle with those contributors to this thread that the recent imports are not particularly desireable for most of us there may be not much choice particularly for the new, and the young new, collector.

What I think of as a desireable piece in the world of Parabellum pistols costs, at minimum, around $2,000 (not that I own many of these at all) and I have not even seen crummy looking shooters priced lower than about $500 lately.

What that means is that people with limited budgets who are still interested in the Parabellum pistol now, with these imports, are able to enjoy the hobby too.

In this world where we, as gun fanciers, are beleagured from all sides, we might want to welcome new comers with open arms, and while we personally might not be interested in what they collect, as least have the good manners to keep quiet.
