Partially to honor my late father, a WW II vet (Navy, Pacific Theatre), partially because of the fine German engineering (I have a "thing" for old MBZ Diesels too), partly because of the connection to Nazi Germany (Make something good out of something bad), that period of history is the most responsible for the way our world is today and I grew up hearing ALL about it!
I have a Nambu for the same reason, and would LOVE to add a Remington Rand 1911 to the collection. P.38 would be nice too!
