Re: Lugers...Why?
Did you ever stop to think that the reason so many parts are changed out on a 1911 is because it is a mini industry here making aftermarket parts for the pistol due to it's popularity. Most of the parts are cosmetic and have nothing with the ability of the pistol to shoot any better. Where would one go to find aftermarket parts for a Luger? There is just no demand for aftermarket parts for the Luger as it has never been taken seriously as a competition pistol. A set of springs and you have just about exhausted your search. Jim Clark built world class pistols and only bought barrels, sights, and bushings for his pistols. The Army AMU teams built fantastically accurate pistols from regular GI 45's and only bought sights from outside sources. All the add-ons are just bells and whistles.
Just how do you know how much I know about competition shooting? When we moved to our new home three years ago I gave away two large boxes of trophys won in competitive shooting, and still have a drawer full of medals. It appears that you cannot continue this discussion without trying to attack me about things you have absolutely no knowledge of. As this discussion, and not an argument as you put it, seems to be going downhill by trying to use my character to prove a point that doesn't exist, you have the stage all to yourself now. Knock yourself out.
