a derogatory term for craftsmen faking scarce or even fantasy lugers for profit. "They" appear to have been in existence and operation since the end of WWII!  Since the term"mafia" is not PC, my apologies in advance to anyone offended.

 Luger Mafia? Quote:
At least the 95% of the Lugers in the hands of collectors in this Country has been imported from Germany, the collectors here are very few, and Luger collectors fewer still; so in my opinion Italy would be of no interest for any faker, especially of Lugers. IMHO
