I hear that Jerry, still, for 1956 (and since I was born in 60...), it appears that prices were higher than the 1965 ad that Orv sent?

But these ads are what sparked my interest as a kid and the movies with Lugers of course!

I imagine they were exagerating on the 1,000 Lugers, but maybe not. There were and are probably 1,000's in warehouses or storage areas. Just look at the M-1's being sold by the US Gov't, I read a thing years ago, that the gov't is still holding 1903 Springfields, just in case. And all those millions of .45's that must have been collected, they must be somewhere? Hopefully not scrap!
