Just Bought My First One!!!

Ralph Shattuck just confirmed by phone that I have bought my first Luger: a "shooter" on his latest list; #6891v, byf, 1936, mech exc, exc mag, good grips". He said, in effect, "It's just above a parts gun, but mechanically reliable and you can be happy shooting it all day". At the price, ($275) and knowing his reputatation, I knew it was the "perfect starter" (Q: pun?) for me and I couldn't pass it by. My thanks to all of you who replied to my request for help about a month ago;, expecially Kyrie, who called in response to e-mailed pleas to him for advice; and Frank Manders, who e-mailed detailed comments offered great suggestions. I've enjoyed lurking out here reading your comments. You really don't realize the scope and breadth of information you all actually provide. As soon as I pick up the piece at my FFL dealer I'll provide a photo and look forward to joining your "Rogues Gallery". I feel like a teen going out on my first date. Regards to all. Ad.
