I had one of the stainless Mitchell Lugers, which was an exact copy of an original Luger. The machining on the gun looked great but the tolerances were not as tight as my S/42, and the soft stainless ramps definitely wore more quickly than the original Lugers. Last year I spoke to Mr. Romo who is the person who makes the stainless Lugers. He told me the retail price of a new gun which I vaguely remember being around $650.

I wonder how much more it would cost to have him tighten up the tolerances and switch to better steel. Allot of people here donâ??t like the stainless guns but I really think he had a good idea that just needed tweaking. I think with some work he could probably produce a really nice Luger that is priced under $2K. If $2K sounds like allot remember back when they were making them, a new Luger cost around 2.5 times the price of a new colt 1911.
