I voted other.
I started collecting with American Civil War rifle-muskets. Eventually the collection started to expand to cover US primary issue long arms. As part of that I picked up some representative opposing forces arms (e.g. GeW98 for WWI, Arisaki 99 & K98K for WWII).
Since I also owned a couple of 1911s, a 1913 made 1911 and my father's WWII 1911A1, as well as a Nambu he broght back, I figured I should get a Luger. That was back in January 1998.
Well, that infected me. My first Luger was a P.08, but I fell in love with the Navy ones. To my eye the P.08 barrel is a bit too short and the Artillery too long. Like baby bear's porridge it's "just right".
