Pete, I admire them, but I would venture the vast, I mean the vast majority of collectors would take a gun that is 99.9% that sat in a desk drawer of Col. Smtheryn...

I am more of the exception, although I want one that is very nice, one that was carried by the soldier appeals to me far more...

Pete and not to put a friend on the spot, do you prefer them shiney and %95 + or?

I think they are expensive because there are "fewer" of them, plus they are WW2 Nazi guns, so there is a mysteque to them via being the last, being rarer etc.
