I think, since I don't dare shoot my new safe queen 1913 DWM this is going to be a shooter. I know many might disapprove but, well, she's too pretty not to take to the range! At least I did well on the price, too. I have to admit I like the Swiss configuration and maybe I'll need a Swiss Luger one day... One day...

Your pistol, shoot it if you want to; really doesn't matter what someone else thinks. JMHO.

$1000 isn't bad, but you could have had a decent original, but mismatched, shooter for the same cost. Parts will be tougher to find for the "new" mauser should you ever need any. Some original type parts may fit, but all will not.

Give us a range report when you have your first outing !

Hi Don,

I posted a few of my shooters in your thread but I think I've got about seven or eight shooters. So it was time to start branching out!

I did fire the Interarms Luger and it's quite fun. I only put 100 rounds through it last year and haven't taken it to the range since (I've been working my way through my other Lugers and Webleys and Broomhandles). My friends like it, though, and now they are talking about getting themselves a Luger.

Michael
