they don't make them like that anymore
We had an old solid aluminum Luger when we were kids that we got to play with and sometimes used the butt as a hammer. So for me it was always the cool pistol. A ladies husband had died and while cleaning she found his old guns and asked my brother ( a police officer) if he would take it out of her house. He called and asked if I wanted it as he had no interest describing it as having a VERY long barrel. He wanted cash so i forked it over. Turned out to be a numbers matching 1916 artillery. that was 5 lugers ago. Finally shot it after many years of ownership and fear of breaking parts. 102 years old and very accurate... he tried it and offered to buy it back
