I have bought a few collectible pistols from Randy in the last several years and have been very satisfied with his descriptions and service. He even sends me the printed list for free because I have bought several pistols from him. I recommend him without hesitation. What has sort of impacted my doing business with Randy is the Nevada sales tax because I reside in Nevada where Randy does business. On high price items that can hurt. I will say on occassion Randy has even absorbed some of that extra sales tax burden! He is basically just a very good guy and I would say a credit to the business!

As for Ralph Shattuck, I agree with Wes, Jerry, and minigun--I will NO WAY pay somebody for the opportunity to spend money with them! Show me what you got and if I buy it you make your profit--this formula works for most. That being said, I have purchased several pistols from him (the last a very nice 1915 DWM P.08 Artillery for a great price) at gun shows like the Big Reno show. I have enjoyed visiting with him and consider him a real asset to the Luger collecting community! I just don't agree with the way he tries to solicit business or market his wares.
