If I have to protect myself it has to be with a reliable weapon that I can purchase reliable ammo for any place I am at. For what it's worth my opinion. Bill
I respect your opinion Bill. You most likely forgot more about Lugers, than I ever hope to learn. One thing though,......"fatigue factor"? Would you care to elaborate? I own quite a few vintage weapons, and other things made of metal, and I have not experienced this fatigue.
