I think the 'cover' of the homepage Luger was blown some time ago... and I don't think the owner minds since he recently emailed me that it gives him much pleasure to see his gun as the opening page...
The gun on the homepage of the Lugerforum is actually a 1937 Krieghoff that at last report was in the collection of Albert Beliard... but he was considering selling it...
The photo, as Ron has pointed out was "sanitized" of markings by me for exactly the reason Ron stated... this photo is one of the best representatives of the 4 inch P-08 and has served the website well... I have received many private emails requested to know what model this is...
I wish that I had more photos of this gun from different angles so that I could create a revolving animation to be on the homepage...
Anyone who has the urge and the technology to create a Luger pistol animation for the homepage is invited to do so... and submit it to me at lugerforum@yahoo.com for consideration... I think it is about time I updated the greeting homepage...
