Forum members age
 
Just curious the age of all the folks around here. I'm in my 20's and have always loved Lugers, including the Luger squirt gun I got when I was like 5.

A good portion of us are old - real old. It is nice though to have people around who will carry the torch.

Seems like there is a new generation of kids who think plastic toys [coff *Glock* coff] are the cat's meow...Us old fogies like machined steel and hardwood... :thumbup:

Years ago there was a poll on this. Start another, for some reason it ps off some of the young guys.

A lot of us have reached our biblical "three score and ten"...and then some!:)

You're all just babies. I'll be 76 in June, God willing.

Arizona Slim 02-15-2014 03:27 PM

I guess after reading Ron Wood's and Neil Young's posts you can count me as one of the "kids" as Sheepherder calls them, wont be 74 until late in the year. :)

My age is 59 until the 14th of November... it gives me the creeps... (but thanks God I "feel" a lot younger)
Oh, by the way I had two Luger squirt guns when I was litte too!

rhuff 02-15-2014 04:45 PM

Three (3) days younger than dirt!! Some mornings, I feel like a thousand, but so goes life, and I still enjoy it very much.

41 going on 14, and hoping that I can still afford to buy lugers in this 'new economy'.:mad:

I find the diversity of opinion and experience here to be very refreshing. I find that the atmosphere of gentlemanly congeniality here to be a pleasant contrast to some other firearms-oriented forums.

I also appreciate very much the fact that beginning and intermediate-level collectors like myself are able to interact with and learn from the true experts and "old hands" in the field.

As I get older, I am starting to appreciate the fact we are all subject to the forward march of time, and that we are all "caretakers of history", in a very real sense.

The more I can learn, the more I can pass on...

I lost my luger virginity at age 47 and continued to lose my luger cherry up to today, age 58!! ~~Eric TKS!

Curss 02-15-2014 06:06 PM

I never owned any Luger squirt guns. Instead, I had an all metal luger capgun made by Lone Star. Sadly I broke it, but had LOTS of fun nonetheless. My dad always liked the P.08....somewhere I picked up his admiration for them. And I agree, hardwood and steel makes the best guns.

As for age, I turned 28 last December.

It is all attitude. I keep telling folks that I'm going to live to be an old man if it kills me.:)

ken d 02-15-2014 06:20 PM

Will be 82 if I make it to 16 Apr.. Got my start on $29.00 Lugers.
