Surviving Lugers

Did you guys see in Shotgun News a couple of months ago, an article on "Black Pathfinders"? These are people who go out in the dark of night to WWII battlefields in Russia to dig up old firearms. Photos include lugers, Mausers, Mosins. These guys "restore" guns to working order for sale to Evildoers & the Unenlightened. Some really ugly stuff after sixty years under ground and often restorable only to single shot but the impression is that the stuff is plentiful and easily found.
I wanna go.
