Walther mfg. American Eagle Luger

[sivadet]

Thanks for the welcome...

I went back and searched another forum to which I belong and found my old thread from January. Seems I did get the query answered: Walther made a line of Lugers in the '70's which was marketed by Interarms. I even found one on GunBroker. I don't know if this one would count as a "real" Luger or not, but it sure looked and felt real enough. (The board has had some changes and I couldn't find my stuff.)

As far as the Beer Goggles--the Beer Crawl involves buying a wristband and a special glass, walking two or three miles and visiting over a dozen stops where you are serves a couple of ounces of beer in your special glass. If the location has more than one kind of beer, you can have two more ounces of each kind. This whole process takes about two and a half hours. We know that, as a general rule, a 150# man can drink one beer per hour pratically forever and stay relatively sober, so I don't think a little over a quart of beer in nearly three hours will get a 250# beer-drinker with forty years experience so sloshed he can't tell the difference between Walther's "banner" logo and Mauser's "Lozenge". (This is where the smiley with the big grin should go...)

Anyway, information about the Interarms thing would be appreciated.

Thanks, ed

Did you save a pic??? Maybe someone made up a steel stamp and marked their commercial Luger as a Walther...Man! *That* would definitely be a $3500 Luger...
