I had a decent Luger collection up until I decided to sell off my guns to pursue other interests. Came here nearly 2 decades ago to learn about my first Luger. Made good friends with a few Patron members, even had them into my home on several occasions. I still swing through here several times a year just to see who's still alive.
One thing that always amazed me was the C&R clauses that allowed certain pistols to legally mount stocks without a legal problem. High Capacity mags are being outlawed in many states with no Grandfathering clause. Considering how the ATF has reversed itself lately, I'd be worried about the future. Unlicensed posession of Artillery/Navy stocks and Snail Drums could put you in prison/heavily fined. Bump Stocks, Pistol Braces, Forced Re-set Triggers were legal, ... then they weren't and possession could now turn you into a felon.
While I may no longer be a firearms owner, I still believe in the right of law-abiding citizens to own weapons in a free society. Anyone here who thinks Lugers are somehow NOT going to be restricted in the future needs to look at the creeping incrementalism being witnessed currently.
People NEED to be aware of what is happening. Relying on the nightly news will NOT give you vital info you need. Folks on a Forum such as this NEED a category that will inform them of what's actually happening in real-time. That's NOT Politics, that's self-preservation.
