Test Luger on GB

Imperial Arms · 05-22-2009, 08:28 PM

Hello Tom & Dwight,

In view of the fact that we will never know whether the pistols outside the 6100-7100 are actual correct US Test Lugers, many of us will remain with uncertainities and doubts while some other collectors will be prepared to take a gamble with those pistols in the 'grey-area'.

I guess that at the end of the day, it is possible that how much money a collector is willing to pay for a 'grey' US Test Luger will determine if it is acceptable or not. For the purpose of my 'comfort' and satisfaction, I would prefer to buy a US Trials Luger in the theorical serial range and the correct features. Some collectors like contraversy whereas I like my peace of mind when I decide to spend plenty of money for an expensive pistol. It is all about how deep you are willing to swim from the shore and what feeds underneath.

Albert
