New collector question

gsonnenmd · 06-25-2005, 11:45 PM

Howdy to eveybody. I'm new to this forum & have a few questions. I collect a variety of military sidearms, especially 1911's. I've never ventured into Lugermania. There are so many angles on collecting this gun, frankly I find it intimidating.

Anyhow, I would like to get a "shooter" Luger. I've been eyeing & priceing Stoeger/Mitchells and Interarms/Mausers at local gunshows. I live near Dallas & we are blessed with some great shows.

Can anyone give me some direction: which of these will be the most reliable? What is a reasonable price to pay for a NIB piece? (I'm looking for a 4" in 9mm).

From what I've seen & handled, I like the Interarms/Mausers better, they feel like more solid construction.

Thanks in advance,

Greg
