New Luger Purchase Questions

Weasel505 · 05-18-2009, 04:53 PM

I had planned to drive to that Cabellas yesterday but never happened. Do they have a lot of "vintage" (WWII and earlier) firearms at that store? Lugers, PPs, PPKs, P-38s, K98ks, etc.?

I ask because I am about two hours away and don't want to spend four hours on the road just to look at shiney new Glocks and S&Ws. That's all they have at the Cabellas in Phoenixville.

Also, I concur with the previous posters that $850 for that gun seems a little steep. I get the impression that maybe Cabellas is steep in general?

Thanks.

I would have to say no to the WWII stuff. There might be a couple. Every now and then when I go there might be a Luger there. Occasionally I will see a P38 or 2. Usually pretty expensive. But I saw this Luger and it looked nice but that was before I did some research here and other sites. I can always take it off layaway and lose 10.00 dollars to find a better piece. If anyone has suggestions where I can find a decent shooter specimen for 1000.00 or less I would greatly appreciate it. Otherwise I will just leave this one on layaway until I can perform a better inspection. Thanks!

When did they put a Cabela's in Phoenixville?
