studying books and forum pays off
Went to a gun show this weekend in MT. It was small but did find a table w/ about 12 Lugers. Seller gave me his card, Luger collector and WW1 WW2 militaria. Had a nice 1906 American Eagle with visible matching #'s incorrect mag, and a nice Erfurt w/ all matching #'s incl, mag. Question, is it unreasonable to ask to confirm matching #'s by disassembling pistol? Seller said it could "mess up gun". I had a pocket full of cash so I was a serious buyer. Main reason for post is that all the research from this forum and taking the advice of reading books really paid off as I knew what to look for and what I was looking at. Seller also had a Stoeger artillery but I didn't bother looking too closely at it as the seller didn't seem to keen on showing it.
