Darn! Oh well, I bought it because I wanted it, not because I'm a luger collector. They're just one of the coolest guns ever made, IMO.

And you're right! It is an amazing shooter! I've got 3 other 9mm semi-autos and it keeps right up with the best of them. And they're all new!

How can you tell the front sight is aftermarket? It looks the same to me, except I don't know about the gold or brass insert. Is that the difference?

Re: Front sight

From what I can find on the Internet, maybe a Marbles front sight. I couldn't find anything from King that looked like it.

Thanks!
