LugerForum Discussion Forums - View Single Post - A New Addiction? Or Is It A New Addition to My Collection? HELP!

I agree with almost all of the answers here. The main question about purchasing your first Luger is "What kind of a gun do you want?" Do you want one that you can shoot, take apart, compare parts while reading some of the excellent books on these pistols or do you want a collector piece?

My vote, obiously, is to get one to shoot and play with while you learn. If I do something bad to my very used 1906 I will not feel the same as if I damaged a mint 1906! (which I do not have).

I would say to hold onto your money until you answer this basic question.

Good luck!

Steve
