Special markings adds some value. But still need to watch out for the overall availability, condition and price.

Since shooters are basically the only category of Luger collection my meager piggy bank can handle, such is life. At this point I don't need any more anxiety, so it's nice to blast away with relatively little of it that shooters present. I suppose, though, one prioritizes among them, and some get shot more than others.

My Mecklenburg Waffenfabrik '06 AE X 6" X 7.65 is currently the busiest, followed by the 1917 9mm military-turned (I"'m pretty sure.)-police.

The stainless P.08 has been out to play a few times, and the 6" 9mm Swiss frame, which I believe is the 29/70, had the .22 conversion kit installed for a couple of years, so it's seen some gentle use.

I've shot my pitted M1900 commercial (and its counterpart the stainless 1900/2000), the really nice long frame '06AE, and the 1917 LP.08 sans stock lug--but not a lot, maybe a half dozen mags.

Erma toggle pistols and small frame Llamas, that's another post in itself.
