Re: german youth luger
A couple of years ago a 1939 dated Krieghoff came out of the woodwork and changed hands several times at an inflated price. When it was finally examined by more than one knowledgeable Krieghoff collector it was identified as a fake. Would the Luger collecting community have been better served if these knowledgeable collectors had just let it go on it's merry way, or was it their responsibility as a vulture to identify it as a fake to try and prevent other less knowledgeable collectors from buying a dud.
