Advice on 1st Luger

Sergio Natali · 05-06-2014, 11:13 AM

Bill,

First of all welcome to this forum.
I've not read all the posts, still if what you want is to start with a "shooter" (right choice) and you want to use it at the range, if I were you , I would choose a late production, non matching Luger, say 1941/1942 as I believe that one century old Lugers should never be fired with modern high speed high power ammunitions, as with the time they may have become somehow structurally unsound. IMHO.

Safe shooting.

Sergio
