Hi all,
I am fairly new here, and have carefully examined this question, here's the thread: http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthread.php?t=36411

I decided not to shoot a "collectible" (defined as a numbers matching gun, good original finish, i.e., a gun attractive to a collector-- i.e. If I broke a SN'd part, I would kick myself for having taken the chance)

I have 1 collectible, and 1 shooter. As time goes on, the number of collectibles can only decrease, while the number of shooters will stay constant, or more slowly decrease. Once a true collectible is gone... it's gone. I'm taking my time saving some $... and then looking for other collectibles, and maybe a special shooter... No hurry

In the meantime, I'm out at the range with my P38 shooter (have to wait until August to try my 1918 DWM shooter) or I'm reading my books and participating in my forums.
