But http://forums.p38forum.com/forums/index.php is not Still's site; it's a P38 site (and other Walthers) primarily. People there are more familiar with the rarer variations of the P38. Just as people here are more knowledgeable about Lugers, they are Walther enthusiasts. Apples & orangutans.

Many people (me included) frequent all three sites (and the ARFCOM Luger/Mauser/Walther forum as well) but are not discerning enough to know the difference between a P38 and a Walther HP. Or what the relative value is. Some don't care - they're not into that line of handguns.

Still's site allows several variations of the vBulletin settings that LugerForum doesn't. I run afoul of that fairly frequently.
