Welcome to the Lugerforum Josh... All Luger enthusiasts are welcome here... you don't even have to own one... just appreciate them.

If you are new to Lugers, there is much to learn here... sit back, read and enjoy.

Black Venom? Are you referring to the Crosman pellet pistol? if not, what?

Welcome to the Luger Forum, Josh!! I hope you join in the conversations as much as possible.

BlackVenom · 09-22-2004, 05:00 PM

Yeah I really like Lugers. I cant own one yet.. the closest thing I have is my (yes) crossman Black Venom.

Josh, as another option, you can own an Airsoft Luger (the bottom one) They are the same basic size and shape too.

Hi Josh,

Belated welcome as well.

If you do not mind telling us what State you reside, you might find a Luger Forum member that is also from your state and who could provide some info. on legal gun ownership and maybe, even help you find your first luger.

A younger fellow named Brandon from TN was befriended by several LF members over the past couple of years and was able to acquire at least 3 lugers when he became of-age (with his parents' approval)...that were righteous guns and not "bogus" pieces...

Welcome aboard !

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />

Hang in there Josh, once the Luger bug bites, you are in for an enjoyable ride. I bought my first Luger when I was 17 and now nearly a half-century later I am still excited about the hobby. Your mom may be partially right about you being crazy. Luger collecting is probably a mild, but delighful, form of insanity!

Good eye Jack!
