Survivors & Sore Thumbs

Jan Still does has estimate on how many Lugers were made in each year but I often wonder how many of these survived and are still around. And, when I look at a Luger, I ask myself how many of these so called matching Lugers have restamped parts? Some of the restamping is very very obvious with Larger and incorrect number fonts, out of alignment of slanted numbers, and some of the "matching mags" are stamped WAY WAY to deep to be right. These stick out like a sore thumb! I guess that is good.....in a way, But unsightly. Thor
