The "definitions" I'm laughing at these days:

"Exceptional"
"Rare"
"Desirable"
"Unique"
"Extraordinary"
"Historic"
"Iconic"
"Scarce"
"Documented"
"Outstanding"
"Excellent"

And on and on. Any of which can be prefaced by "very", "ultra", "extremely" and similar zippy qualifiers.

Recently I asked a seller about the bore as his ad was silent on the subject. He said it had "pronounced rifling"; just think about what horrors could lurk alongside said rifling.

Dealing with sellers and trying to sort through their descriptions has not increased my faith in the integrity of the average human. Sadly, I have concluded the average Luger Seller considers the average Luger Buyer an idiot (excepting of course those who offer pistols here...)
