My take--This is a discussion forum on the study, collecting, and whatever else there is on the subject of German Lugers--We have agreed to the ban of the "N" subject and that is fine with me as it is an unresolvable issue. Anything beyond that is uncomfortable to me.


A man is as good as his word-period-bad experiences are as important to us as a group as good ones-another day in the life. I agree that while personal disputes and feuds have little place here, legitimate issues such as fakings or shaftings are fair.


There have been references in the past to this-I remember a family operation refered to as "fakes or us."


Discussions are just that-I object to the idea of "prettying things up" by *****footing around unpleasant issues. Some of the current Luger demigods have been known to engage in less than legitimate transactions and this should not be relegated to the dark.
