Steve,
Although I am slow to anger, you have done it. Now you will feel the heat of my fury, and bear my weight of my wrath!
We have spoken of Picasso paintings, Stradivarius violins and Luger pistols in the same breath. We have examined history through the perspective of an elegant, deadly tool that functioned before we were born. And yet we still have not brought you from and through your position of quivering indecisiveness. One can display, lovingly gaze at and always be in awe of a Picasso. We can equally appreciate the exquisite form and function of a Stradivarius, as well as hear it's beautiful voice. We can do all of these and more with a restored Luger, and yet the Luger offers something the art object or the musical instrument does not: We can use it to shoot the painting and the fiddle to pieces!
I am sick of your jello-like wavering. Even the newest beginner moves forward...but not you. No, you take up our time with "should I or shouldn't I?" I can tell that you're in pain--the pain of not being able to make up your fickle mind. Well, I'm gonna end it for you Steve; I'm gonna take your pain. My standing offer to you on your newly acquired 1920 Commercial Luger is this: If after having Thor completely restore it, and after receiving it back from him and holding it in your hand, if after all of this you still are not sure if you should have restored it or not then I promise in front of God and the Lugerforum to buy this Luger from you at 105% of the total amount you have in it. I am absolutely serious, I have my C&R and I'm not afraid to use it. This is what you have driven me to; I hope you can sleep at night. So what's it gonna be Steve--the ball's in your court. Like the man said: Go ahead, make my day!
