Re: Luger Ammo
Gruss Gott,Ted!
Point definitely understood and well taken to
heart with respect to the older generation of this
beautiful work of art.I have a couple of "new"
manufacture which shouldn't ( the operative word is
"shouldn't") be suffering from spring fatigue at such a young age.I've never fired the 1917 Erfurt.
I've only put a few rds. through the '36 Mauser.I'm
terrified of messing them up,even if they aren't
true collector pieces.To me they are.That's why I
bought the new stainless pistols.So I could get some
of the fit and feel of the "real" thing without
risking injury to said same.But just because my
surogate babies aren't the original genuine article
doesn't mean I don't still dote on them a bit.I
can't help it.They are related!
Thanks for reminding me that the others are more
advanced in years and suffer from some of the same types of frailties that we all begin to see as time
progresses!I can't swear that the temptation to
shoot the originals will be forever banished from
my thoughts and desires,but your reminders do give
me pause to attempt reasoned response when they surface.Thanks!
Tschuss! Mark
