Antonio welcome to the forum!
George usually has some pretty good stuff for sale (although not a dealer), and you just caught him where he said he was going to sell some artillery's! ed

vesuvio,
George, (Keoki to the cognocenti) is a straight up guy; he stands behind everything he sells. I have had numerous deals with him and reccomend him without reservation. Tom A |

Simpsons has a solid, excellent reputation as a dealer. I have purchased several and would do so again.
Doug Smith and Ken Clark of FGS out of Ohio are also excellent to deal with. http://www.fgsinc.8m.com/ |

Hello Antonio,
Welcome to the Luger Forum. I guess you are Italian (Antonio + Vesuvio = Napoli). I am Italian and I love the arty as well... www.lugerlp08.com

Forgot to mention...member Goerge Anderson is one of the nicest, honest private fellows that will sell you an honest LP-08...the dealers I mentioned above are great, but their prices are usually higher that a deal between collectors.

...and I bounce between Winchester, McLean...and Washington DC depending on the time of day, and the day of the week... I also can provide references for George Anderson... whatever he sells you from his collection will be righteous...

Anderson's a Bum! I wouldn't trust him...
I sent George 4 of my most cherished Lugers to sell at the Chantilly show for me. Unfortunately or I should say fortunately, none of them sold. I later regretted even trying to sell them and was happy to have gotten them back. Geo sent them back to me and all it cost me was shipping. I would trust Geo with anything that I own.
