Bill,
I would buy a Luger from the good folks offering them here in the WTS-section of the forum.
I have bought just one Luger yet at a local gun shop and was lucky to get a decent matching (shooter) Luger. But I had honestly no real idea what I bought til I found out at this forum. I had no real idea about models, markings, matching #, parts til I joined the luger forum.
If you buy from the WTS section, I guess, you have a chance to buy from a well respected Luger expert and not just from an "anonymous" seller at a gun show which maybe rip you off with a "franken luger".
