I wonder if we need a new more "politically correct" term like "decorated Lugers"?

After all, the Luger itself is a real pistol, generally coming from one or more of the Luger factories.

All these supposed value "enhancer" markings are intended to deceive collectors and buyers. Some are, I supposed, intended to celebrate things that are now discredited. And many of these markings are actually prohibited by law in Germany itself.

Since collectors look for Lugers that are as close as possible to the original state when the pistols left the factory, collectors are generally not interested in "decorated Lugers" unless we want one for some reason other than it's supposed rarity. After all, with these, there is generally just one - making it extremely rare.
