My father doesn't get excited by much anymore, but this Christmas he told me about the time he got to shoot a Luger when he was a young man, so I decided I'd try to get him one. I did a very little research and it seemed a K was the right thing to try to get since he was born in '34 and they're so historically fascinating/important.

Of course, I quickly found out how much even a decent K date costs. I really didn't have much hope, but then I saw this incredibly beautiful K date for sale. Long story short, I got it in time to still slip it under the tree before my parents took it down.

A little more research on the three red dots on the magazine well and another shortened story led me here.

How great it is to know my gift had already been such a beautiful gift.

Thanks again, Ted

PS My dad is thrilled.
