Thanks Ron,
your German is astonishing, didn't expect that from somebody hailing from El Paso,Texas. Congratulations.
I'm not a hard core collector, only an active sports shooter hanging on the shooting range twice/trice a week. Mostly black powder muzzle loading rifles, pistols and revolvers but all are replicas.
Being a mechanical engineer from profession, since years I'm fascinated from the accuracy, make and mechanical function of the Lugers and by chance some weeks back I've got a good offer for an artillery as you call it. Due to the fact that the gun laws of Germany are very restrict, it took some time to get the permission for procurement. In the mean time I found your impressive forum and was very much impressed by the experience of the members regarding this weapon.
So it is always a great pleasure for me to read the comments and to share my knowledge up to some extend.
regards
Peter
