New VOPO
My latest addition a genuine VOPO parts gun P08. This one will definitely be a shooter, though it does look nice. It has been re-barreled and blued and if two sets of numbers match then it was an accident. In all I think it was well worth the 262 euro's ($346) I paid for it and am looking forward to taking it to the range.

Super buy!!! A functional Luger at under $400 is almost a miracle.

This was my 3rd in about 3 weeks, all around the $400 mark. The older Germans seem to be selling off their low end guns at the moment. The only down side is my wife said if I buy any more Luger's any time soon it will be expensive no matter what the selling price is.

The great thing about buying Lugers is that most wives can't tell one from the other. Just don't keep them all together and she may not know how many you have.

An impressive specimen and a shooter for $400! Perhaps I need a VOPO Luger next, myself.
