I got my first Luger many moons ago (1958), when one could buy them through mail order! I saw an ad in Guns magazine from "Ye Olde Hunter". I was short of funds, so could afford the "average" grade for $35! The "pick of the litter" was a staggering $45, out of my league. When it arrived at my doorstep, it was a rebarrelled DWM military with a mismatched sideplate. I should have saved up for that $45 "gem".
