Friends and Lugers

[Thor]

It sure is amazing how much fun it is to talk Lugers with people. Paul Ingraham came by today to pick up his mismatch parts S/42 1940 Mauser. This was the gun that fired the phenomenal group last week that I posted. He was sure thrilled with his gun and told me that "gee these things are addicting!" I then showed him Don Leverty's Artillery (in progress) and he said "Wow, I have get one of those" We went through Jan Still's Books and he decided the first step was to get "Imperial Lugers". I sugguested he purchase it from the Author Jan Still and ask for an autograph on the book, which Jan is very gracious to provide. He was thoughly interested in the long barrel Luger and was amazed at the rear sights. I told him the real Luger treat was to go visit Ralph Shattuck and see the whole history of the Luger in shrined in his collection that is a chronologic history of it's variations. Paul is a 45 guy and just bought a parts Luger and now he is thoroughly addicted to them. Lugers are like that.....yep....they are!! Thank God!! ~~~Thor~~~
