Default Re: Import/non-import

What the term "imported" most commonly refers to are recently imported and Importer MARKED pistols that have come in from the former Eastbloc countries.

These Russian and East German rebuilt pistols are the "imported" Lugers. There are also some Finnish Lugers that fit this category.

The non-imports are Lugers that were imported by places like Stoeger and include the tens of thousands of Lugers that were brought home by USGI's from two World Wars.

There was also a time when imports were not marked by the importers as is now done.
