Looking for your first shooter? Here are some pictures of my "shooters" or at least that is what the real money calls them. I collect these as the all original Lugers are just too expensive and there are too many really good fakes out there. The Bulgarian cost $350, the Simpson $395, the DWM custom barrel was$550. In the Luger set the second from the right is an all matching DWM from Ralph Shattuck for $850, and on the far right is a DWM no matching for $295. When I refer to all matching it excludes the mag. The DWM long barrel is not matching as it is a custom job with a white dot insert in the sight. The Simpson is all matching, the Bulgarian is matching less side plate. I currently have a really nice all matching, less firing pin, Erfurt at a shop in Florida getting refinished, it was $350 and came chromed. Hang in there, they are out there and not all that expensive, and in my opinion, look great. Check them out at
