Maybe because it just isn't ethical Joe... when I find a 'dealer' that engages in this practice, they are crossed off my list... and anything that I hear has been sourced from them becomes suspect and subject to extreme scrutiny.

Knowingly representing a Luger, or any other collectible firearm as something it is not ...is just plain Fraud IMHO...plain and simple. If we don't police this hobby, we are screwing ourselves, not the dealers.

The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
