Not my father's Luger but I'm very happy

I think that you did well. I think that if you are happy with your Luger, then it is a sucess. If you are buying/selling to make a profit then you use one set of criteria to judge your purchases, if you are seeking to acquire a sentimental talisman then there is an entirely different set of criteria which will apply. I also am new to the Luger game, but have wanted one since a I was a teenager in the 1970's eagerly reading every gun magazine until they were tattered, and transfixed over the gorgeous cover shots of various Lugers.
