Interesting posts by Eric
 

My aim is to provide you a one place where you can have access to all available sites dealing with our favorite weapon. I'll post any resource that I find interesting and something you might like. A human luger search engine! Thirty years ago I was taught how to research an issue in the basement of Villanova University law library. I'm am very good at it. If you have a topic that you would like to find out more, I will help with your issue or where to begin your search. Just PM me! What took hours or days is no more. The internet has changed our concept of research. LUGERS are my favorite search! You can decide what is fact or fiction! The only problem is that they can change every day! ~Eric~ YOU CAN RETURN AFTER OPENING ANY SITE BY HITTING THE "Pistole Parabellum' ABOVE

The Great Berlin Candy Drop~
 

In 1961 the Russians cut of access to west Berlin. We went to the rescue by parachuting food and supplies. The pilots noticed hourds of children from bombed out Berlin gathering at the end of the runways. One man had the idea of dropping small parachutes with candy. The Berlin children went crazy. I implore you to take a moment to watch the presentation with Tom Brocow, the original pilot and the Morman Tabernacle choir~The ending will bring a tear to your eyes. Proud to be American! http://www.youtube.com/embed/_vR2wgq0ZMc Originaly sent to me from George Anderson~

Eric, these are interesting but a bit to many 'separate' posts, so I have added them to here :)

Tks Ed, brillant~~ I just noticed I broke 4000 posts. How many more do I need for a Luger Watch! Kidding always an honor!

Very good point, I'll provide a short narritive with each! I was shocked by so many~ I'll go back and start with the most recent first~ Thank You My Friends!!

Eric

I realize I'm going to repeat myself but as usual you always provide us with an awful lot of precious information.
Thanks a lot.

Eric that sounds like a massive work!!!


Sergio

Typical lawyer, I don't know when to shut-up!!! I will do my best! 4013 posts WOW!

Eric

I think your ENTHUSIASM is contageous!!!

This is the reason I love them. This one pretty purchased from George Anderson. He provides the finest Historys~~

I love everything about them. This is especially true in tracking their individual historys. Often It puts a face and story to a luger whose owners had probobly as much excitement that is lacking from all other.firearms. My research At Villanova Law School Law School 1978-1981 provides me the thirst to find out more! Thank for all you friendship and patience. Since my stoke my short term memory is shot but long term fabulous~ Eric

I agree with some posts but the one above with the name on the grip was fully researched by George Anderson, my hero including the name of its previous owner contained in his precise narrative I have posted below! I know when and where he died including the obituary . In his narrative he describes it flawlessly. I wish I had history like that on all of my pretties! Please tell me what more I can possibly provide. Most lugers only have what on its' face and a serial # ie maker sometimes, years and better yet a unit marking from which you can try to trace back. I always post everything I have at that time and amend later if I discover more relevent information~~~ I real appreciate your continued support! Tks Eric

You're right, Eric! I don't know how I got so confused! :confused:

Please, keep up the good work! :thumbup:

Your right it can be confusing! Thats the result of the barrage of info that I am presenting. I just ran up on a fabulous WW1 site full of photos, the finest ever. I'll post them tommorow. Please stay tuned~~~Eric

http://greatwarphotos.com/2014/12/01...he-somme-1914/ Its the Battle Of The Somme. I have an artillary luger that survived the battle! I try to focus on the personal aspects of war~ On the right are at least a hundred links to other fine articles and photographs~~ I can get lost in all this information~ Respectivly Summited, Eric~

Another WW1 gold mine. Loads of categories http://gottmituns.net/page/2/ It will take weeks to comb through. My finest find in ten years and covers both wars!~~My knowledge in Legal Research has helped here in tracking down great sites well hidden~PS Don't forget the links on the right side! Respectaly Submitted Eric

Eric

You've lost me, I can't keep up anymore simply there is too much of it!! :-)

Sergio :surr:

Take a few at a time. Ed set it up and I'm thankful in one thread. Much like a chinese menu. Read only what interests you. What I find I must post with short dispription immediatly or possibly lose it forever. Believe me it takes hours and I have a numb typing finger. There are hundreds out there and I post only those I deem relevant and professional. Lugers are a very popular topic! Tks as always! I have learned so much from these articles. I'm trying to bring them all together to avoid you all hours of your valuable time and soar eyes elsewhere. Please stay here as your suggestions are valuable and welcomed~ Again I thank Ed an John for this kind courtesy

An interesting article dealing with captured German firearms collected by the Russians at the end of the war and later reissued with xxxx markings. I've attached my Mosin Nagant revolver as I don't own a Russian marked luger. http://www.ai4fr.com/main/page_milit..._luger_rc.html

This post in Jans' contains the big debate between Bulgarian and Russian lugers is now taking place Here the post on that fuels the fire!http://luger.gunboards.com/showthrea...Russian-Lugers You decide but my money is on Ron! Here is the contraversal article~ http://www.gunvaluesboard.com/there-...roof-1740.html

Eric

I think that with all these interesting findings you would deserve a secific site on your own!

Sergio

Sergio, because of my stroke I could never manage the responsibility. I thank Uncle Ed who I've known over a decade to offer a better solution. I post articles here. I never imagined there are so many! Over 5000 views thus far! Tks as always my friend and critic!!
