Shooter Prices
 

Gun shop in Atlanta, GA. that specializes in collectible firearms has what are advertised as `shooter grade` Lugers starting at $699.99 and up. These are said to be `mostly matching`, refinished, and are imports with a Russian property mark. Said to be captured during WW2 and rebuilt and put into Russian storage for any future needs. See Lugers on Ralph Shattucks web site advertised as `shooter grade` running at around $450.00 or so in about the same condition. Why the big difference in price? Am looking for a Luger with some collectibility that will be safe to shoot without hurting its value. Local gun shows only have high dollar collector grade which are very nice but more than I am willing to spend, also back to hurting the value of a true collectors piece by shooting it. Who would be a trustworthy dealer for what I`m looking for? Afraid the Atlanta, GA. shop wants more than the pieces in question are actually worth.

You can't go wrong dealing with Ralph Shattuck or Tom Hellerman

Dok,

I had just discovered my error, and my sincere apology to Tom. I have done business with, and highly recommend him, even if I had a memory lapse. (I shouldn't try to participate on this board so soon after mowing my yard! Obviously the physical activity rattles my brain.)

No it's all those toxins...
 

released by cutting that grass... I steadfastly refuse to do it, the world is poluted enuff already!

My wife likes to mow our grass...
