HÃ?Â¥kan ;

Greetings from a grandson of the Kanneworff family .


I do not wish to disagree with you, but In these days of computer driven tooling, especially Multi spindle Lathes and five axis milling machines . The only reason that nothing of luger quality is being produced or re-produced is strictly based on the profit motive .


I know because I for one am capable of programming these machines to produce parts such as these much faster , with less fixturing , fewer setups , and to closer tolerances than were ever possible between 1900 and 1950 . And this can be done in Precipitation Hardning Stainless Steel that can be finished in any color from straw to medium or deep blue , and rust resistant to go with it .


They can be manufactured of better steel , to more consistent quality and possibly even at lower cost . If only there were some profit motive to justify the many hours of programming and testing that would be required to produce or re-produce these fine guns .


With what can be done with modern thechnology I can not understand why anyone would produce a Luger Copy using old machining techniques and any other than the best Precip. Hardning stainless steels which are in all ways superior to the carbon steels that were used in the Classic Luger .


I guess we must blame much of it on The dissapearance of pride in ones work and the profit motive which now so degrades our world today .


I wish to make it very clear that I find none of this low quality work from our associates on this forum , where Quality and Pride are of the first order .
