Edward,
I must say you have very interesting perspective. If your theory holds true....then you will be in the right place at the right time to become the next major Luger Collector/Dealer. Thatâ??s assuming any of us are allowed to own or have guns in the next 20 years. Iâ??m sure that the current Democratic presidential candidate will not be the only anti-gun liberal who will be attempting outlaw guns over the 20 years.

I can only tell you that I wish I had developed the â??Luger addictionâ? when I was in my 20â??s. That would have given me not only 15-20 more years of collecting experience and knowledge, but I would have been able to talk directly to the WW1 vets about their experienceâ??s and the stories that go with most of the guns I now own.

As far as you being offended by the treatment you received, believe me your not the only one who get the cold shoulder from dealers sometime, however instead of taking offense to the treatment, you should use your position of perceived ignorance, and turn it around to your advantage. You can easily determine if the seller is an Honest straight shooter or not when they think you donâ??t know anything about the subject.
The way I see it, because of your reaction you and the seller both missed an opportunity.

Oh , by the way Iâ??m still buying Lugers, gambling that your theory is wrong and that the next generation will still be fighting to protect our rights to own and posses firearms.

Jim
