The Puyallup gun show is a real good one to go to just because are so many tables. But you do not see a lot of Lugers at any gun shows in Tacoma or Seattle area at least when I lived there a number of years ago, although I'm from Washington state but the dry side.

On line or Luger collectors is a good bet.

The problem is that the cheapest shooter is about $600, if incredibly lucky, almost always closer to $800+ depending on why it's a shooter?

I don't doubt that some see shooters as a cheaper alternative, but I believe the main reason is that Lugers are good shooting guns. They can really hold their own at the range, and like somebody said: "you can get $2000 worth of accuracy out of a $1000 gun".
