How Many Lugers Do The Average Member Collect

I wondered if an inquiry as to how many and what type our average member owns. I own 8 and hope to make it 9 real soon!

I do know yours are some of the Finest!!

You are very kind, Eric, but yours are quite awesome too.
And the collections some of our members here have, are simply museum grade.
No matter how many, or how perfect, there will always be some one with better Lugers. :)

You also are way too kind and yes it took me 2 ex wives to finally find my best and last I pray!!

45 - Less than 1 per year for 54 years of collecting. Oh well, 45 is the reciprocal of 54:)!

52 - most are not expensive

I have a large number of luger holsters. If only if I had a luger for each holster. Maybe I will win the lottery.

32 and a large collection of mostly american commercial luger holsters (70+) and quite a few military luger holsters. I had a collection of other German WW1 and WW2 weapons but have sold them off ( 35 of them) Expect I will sell the lugers one of these days. Getting old. Have been collecting around 50 years. Bill

I don't know.

Was around 23, but I have bought and sold a few, so I don't know (and obviously i am not home to check)

I figure my kids can have fun disposing of them.

Of course, I have left info on the various aspects of them, when acquired and possible value. Also a list of a couple of people to contact, a couple of venues to sell them, and especially a list of who not to contact.

I was told its not the size but the quality from a man who owned more than anyone else R.S.

I was told by an old sage, Orv Reichert, if you have one Luger, you are a novice collector. If you have two Lugers, you are a collector. If you have three or more, you are an advanced collector. Well I guess that makes me an advanced collector. :)

Hi, my name is Mike , and I'm a Lugerholic.

At some point in life you will realize you can't own them all and you will need therapy, good luck to you and your family.

And thats all that really counts! I am happy but looking isn't a sin!

SteveM 03-30-2011 09:29 PM

20-25, but unlike Ron, most of mine are reproductions. I can't afford 'em anymore...at least the ones that would fit (condition wise) in my collection.
