Several years ago we had a 'poll' where folks showed their age, another poll showed how many lugers folks had, both were anonymous; yet, talk about the hell it raised!
Anyway, it showed that many of the guys were well over 60 and some in their 80's.
Point is, that the folks who contribute and share, well, many are much older, but remember that younger is not always age, but how much knowledge you have. I know lots of 'newer, younger" collectors who out-age me by a decade or two... Knowledge is not always off the top of your head, but from all the books we own. I am a good generalist when it comes to lugers, I know a lot, but I know a lot because I can go get a luger book and half-way remember where the info was
Even here traveling to Saudi Arabia, I brought 6 thick books with me, originally I had 15, but at Christmas time I took more than half home with me.
