Hi Bob. I'm with you about taking Lugers apart. Your comment made me think about the average German soldier. He probably did a lot less than you or I do to clean a Luger! Maybe that's why we see a lot of double dated Lugers! Can you imagine what it would have been like to just exist in a trench on a day to day basis? Nevermind worrying about whether or not your sidearm was going to last longer than you did. Of course, the condition of your sidearm might have everything to do with how long you lasted! Just some idle thoughts evoked by your comment. I hope all of you will indulge me.
