Just my opinion but with CNC machinery and the ability to hold very tight tolerances, I think a new Luger could be made at an attractive price.

While certainly not as intricate as the Luger, Tisas is able to make an excellent 1911 and the importer can make a profit at $400 or less. I would think that a Luger could be made and sold for under $1,000.
