Jerry,

Your goal for a Luger is attainable. I bought my "shooter" Luger in April for $500 even, bought an extra magazine, and had Hugh fix up a set of aftermarket grips for me. Total cost still under $600. It's a 1936 reblued Mauser--nice job, good color and square edges, but salt blued with no strawed parts so obviously a shooter.

My Luger is more accurate than even I realized. See my post under Shooting and Reloading, Overpressure Russian Ammo for a target I shot today. 1.5 inch group right out of it's case in spite of tiny sights and a gritty trigger. You just have to sight in the gun (not easy with fixed sights), focus on the sights and squeeeeeze the trigger.
