Default Re: Luger Books

I posted these a while ago - but here are my picks as well. I think it supplements Kyrie's list a bit....


KRIEGHOFF PARABELLUM by Randall Gibson - a "must have" if you enjoy Kreighoffs and an interesting synopsis of Ku Lugers


GERMAN PISTOLS AND HOLSTERS - LtC. Robert Whittington (on my "want" list:-)


LUGER-THE MULTI-NATIONAL PISTOL - Charles Kenyon - the picures alone are worth the price...


THE DUTCH LUGER - Marten & de Vries - outstanding book about a little documented Luger variation. Saved about $1,200 by NOT buying a well done "fake" because of it..!


PARABELLUM, A TECHNICAL HISTORY OF SWISS LUGERS - Vittorio Bobba - rates up there with THE MULTI-NATIONAL PISTOL book (and the auther even dis-spells some common "collectoring" myths)...


I bought all these from either Ralph Shattuck or at Ray Rilings ( http://www.rayrilingarmsbooks.com )


HTH!!!
