I would like to get one for $300 like the stories ive been hearing. I mean i would give more for one up to $700, but thats my limit pretty much. I would like to get one that will increase in value but one that im not afraid to shoot, a little. Like, from now untill i die, i will most likely put less than 5 boxes of 9mm through it.
Do you have one or know where i can get one. I was told by another luger man that the early ones are more for collecting because the steel was more brittle and prone to crack and break, and also that i shouldnt use the barrel i got. Im not sure if its a NOS barrel or a replacement, no markings, large front sight??? I payed $120 for it. If i find a nice luger that doesnt need a new barrel i will sell this one.
Im going to call my local friend and see what hes got tonight.
Thanks
