Gentlemen, I have to agree with Jimbo on his analysis of Tom Armstrongs character. It is Sterling. He cares less about the $$ than doing what is right.

I have to disagree with his take on the pistol. Jimbo, you are ignoring history and taking a myopic view of Luger collecting. Of course that is your right and it is your money so I respect that. I just think if you find an otherwise mint pistol and the toggle pin is not marked it is not the end of the world. Now the price you pay for it is another thing but that certainly would not bother me consedering what these pistols have gone through over the years. In fact, I suspect many pistols found in prime condition. As most of you know the price of this stuff is rising every day...Why you might ask? Scarcity. Every day someone breaks down an otherwise good pistol and sells it for parts. We will come to some time in future where this demand will exceed supply. Prices will continue to rise. If you got the money don't be afraid to get em while you can. Jerry Burney
