why do you like lugers?

This is a good qquestions and I think I fall right in line with all the others as to why I love Lugers, but I like the historical aspect best.

Another thing about Lugers is that when I forst started collecting guns about 35 years ago, I was into military rifles, but wanted a few handguns. i could afford the German K98k all matching at the time at $75 each once in a while, but I could not come up with $175-200 for a nice Luger. After school and military, I began collecting again, stayed away for a while, and then began collecting German used handguns of the Third Reich. After getting at least one example of most pistols, I started to settle on P.38s and Lugers. Now, I can afford to buy the Lugers that I could not afford years ago and with being able to buy them, the historical aspect, I LOVE them!
