Erma KGP 69 (.22 LR Luger imitation)

Michael,
I think this was an OK price. I've seen plenty listed for more, like $4-600, and they are not all necessarily minty. I have a limit of around $225-250 for any other La .22's I might find, seeking this because they are such a crapshoot concerning function. The diecast parts definitely detract from one's confidence in the things (Don't forget, I already broke one of the wimpy front toggles--right where there is an obvious lack of structure/beefiness.) and I would also shell out more for the Ermas with more steel in them. I believe the Ep's share this aspect with the KGP, so I'm anticipating trying them both, eventually.
Let us know your results with the standard velocity!
