Thx to all for your input. I have looked at Legacy and his prices are reasonable and even his description of his guns tells you if he thinks there is a problem - like one where he mentions that a mag doesn't appear to be factory stamped. To me, that sounds pretty honest

Anybody have any feedback on Phoenix Investment Arms, DFW Arms?
Are there any dealers/sellers that you'd be weary of? Happy Memorial Day to all and a sincere "thank you" to any vets on this board, Syd

Try Simpson LTD but the first question I would ask is it import marked?? They sold me one where it was not in the description. If you can have the gun in hand it is even better. Checkpoint Charlie seems to have some nice stuff. Never bought from him though.

Yeah, I've looked at checkpoint Charlie's based on positive words on him from this forum. I'd like to see whom others have had good luck with. Simpsons sounds like the "go to" guys. I'm not looking for a "deal" on a luger - just a fair price for a correct Nazi era luger. Thx, Syd

If you read enough old posts here about Phoenix Investment Arms, you'd avoid them like an ISIS barbeque.

I like Legacy's photos. He by far is the better photographer. I think my next purchase will be from him. He will probably have something you are looking for. He has some nice Mausers.

I'll second that on the picture quality at Legacy; Simpson's
photos leave a lot to be desired, always dark- make everything look
"better", JMO; and not many of them either.
