Poll for bad Luger section

[DaveinTN]

Iâ??m not sure I understand what the generally accepted definition of a â??bad Lugerâ?� is.

Because Iâ??m new to this sort of thing and not a serious collector, I only have a few rules that I currently go by.

I wouldnâ??t want to own a Luger that had been so abused by a wire wheel on a bench grinder that no straight edges remained. Nor would I want to own a gun that had been so amateurishly restored or customized that it couldnâ??t be rescued.

I wouldnâ??t want to own a gun that was extremely rare but otherwise nothing more than a rusted and pitted piece of scrap metal.

I wouldnâ??t want to own a gun that I couldnâ??t shoot.

I wouldnâ??t want to own a gun that I knew was stolen, even if I could buy it â??under the radar.â?�

I wouldnâ??t want to own a gun that I later found out was misrepresented to me at the time of sale. But as they say in Latin, â??Caveat venditorâ?¦â?�

Iâ??m sure I have other criteria, but this is all that comes to mind at the moment.
