Yes, this illustrates quite well a two-edged situation. As familiar, as are most people (e.g. your progeny), with the Luger's distinctive shape, this degree of of familiarity matches the level of ignorance generally achieved about any other of the Luger's aspects, even by licensed gun dealers or smiths. Its mechanics are unique, and there are many other fine details concerning its collection or operation that are in danger of being just lost. But not if the members of Lugerforum and Jan Still's forum have anything to say about it!
