I think everyone knows where I stand on this subject. It would be very helpfull to new collectors, providing such rudementary facts as "on an Imperial Luger, The inside of the chamber should not be blued" The look that a particular Luger's finnish should have; Rust, Dip, Salt, etc and from which period a particular finnish comes from. We need to be carefull, as Jan noted that we don't get into personalities in this section, but if a member has had a negative experience with a particular dealer, it should be able to be brought up. Chances are very good that it has happened to others. Especially in the event that the dealer is PURPOSELY doing this, it really has to be mentioned. Great example is Mitchel's Mausers, offering New Unissued P38's in wood boxes for $2000.00. Just a warning that the same guns can be bought for $389.00. No flames, just an honest warning, w/ the facts. The forum members can then make up their own minds. Just a couple of thoughts.
