Here's some good non-PC Luger talk for ya...

I am always fascinated by the attention WW2 Mauser Lugers command. As Ron Wood notes, they are reproductions :-) The same thing applies to the Walther PP versus the Sauer 38H and the Mauser HSC. The PP is certainly not a standout in function or quality over the other 2. But Nazi/SS affiliations, real or imagined, run the Walther price up. And my last controversial observation: the Death's Head 1918 Luger. A contingent wants this to be the original SS pistol. I feel that is a needless smear on the Death Head legacy. I would rather own a fake than an SS pistol, which saves me a lot of money.
