Ever hear the joke that a scar is nothing but a tatoo with a good story?
Well, I'm a sucker for old dogs that need a place to live too.

IMHO a decent price; good Luger to start on; you can shoot it without the heartbreak of a broken [serialized] part; and a good way to get into Lugering...You can trade up or keep as a 2nd shooter...

Oh, poop on Jerry! Like he's never paid top dollar for a run-of-the-mill Luger!
Have some fun with a starter Luger. Get the grips re-cut; fix the magazine; replace the broken firing pin spring guide; etc. Get a feel for them and get a collectible later. It's only money - what else you going to buy??? A new kitchen??? A sofa??? A new pair of shoes???
Buy buy buy!!!
