As a young boy in the 50's my fathers family (not my father) were, lets say, just the opposite of police. When they came to the house to visit they all carried Lugers. They would take out there gun and set it on top of a table and my father would tell me that I could look, but never touch. I fell in love with these pistols and as soon as I was able, purchase my first one. I have a collection of them now, and will give them to my children when I die.
