Thor Restorations-#287
 
I am starting on number 287, that is counting Lugers alone! WOW, what a crazy ride I have had since 2001 when I started my business. Special thanks to the late great Ralph Shattuck and his wife Nancy for all they did to give me a boost! And also to John and Jen Dunkle for making my business possible. Special thanks to John Sabato for his computer savy help, Hugh Clark for his fantastic grip work, GT for those terrific mags, Les Center (Dok) for his Luger cases, Jerry Burney for his superb holsters, Brian Powley for his master engraving to enhance old buffed existing markings,Tom Heller supplying parts and barrels to keep these Lugers perking right. Also to Neil Keller for those super baby Lugers, Jan Still for his guidance and patience, Mauro for posting my Luger pics on his Artillery Website. You all are important to me and my business but more over as my dear friends.
Thanks to Eric for his friendship and all those terrific Lugers he got from "gramps" George Anderson for his help with Artilery Luger info. Frank Manders for sharing his indepth knowledge of Mauser Lugers. I am sure I have missed someone as so many terrific people have helped us! Have a great year my dear friends! :cheers:

I forgot to thank Ron Wood for all his help and information on the American Eagle and Early Commercial, Army Test Luger, info the Doctor of Lugerology is so gracious to share.

Ted,
Thank you for your kindness. I don't think a title of Doctor is deserved as I am still a student.
