Don, shame on you, you bid and bought a Gold Plated luger! (ok, I was the one that got it, but it sold quickly)

I'll buy most any luger if it is cheap enough!

Anybody else think that barrel is too short for 9mm???

I've adjusted the image in my paint program and measured the barrel length at 3 3/4"...That's not 9mm...

Good eye, and clever measuring.
I suspect the description may be in error; every thing else is "wrong" about that one, so maybe the caliber is too!

Don beat me to it! (I used a ruler and algebra and came up with 3 5/8")
