Chris, Good advise above. If you purchase an original mismatched or reblued shooter, you will learn more about function, collecting and have an easier time finding spare parts, should you need them, than with one of the new overpriced stainless lugers. This is not an insignificant factor, as you would be surprised how many "gunshow bargain" shooter I get for repair, when they fail to function correctly. Even most large dealers, don't warantee their "shooters" to function correctly. I just picked up 3 of them at a local gun show last weekend, and have already spent a couple of hours on each getting it up to specifions. Now I need to test fire them, to see if they actually will work reliably, before selling them. TH
