What was your first Luger?/ What got you into collecting Lugers?

[Major Tom]

I tried to collect lugers then reality set in......lack of funds! ;-/
But I do own one, my first, a 1920 7.65 cal. 4 inch barrel all matching and shoots great!

My first Luger wasn't
A 1970's era Mauser parabellum in 7.65.
I wanted a shooter and decided newer metallurgy was the way to go

After a bit
Only sorry it did not have the little blue medallion.

Second Luger is a Luger, 1913 DMW 9mm

Third Luger is NOT a Luger again Erma Werke KGP 69

as said I am a shooter and .22LR is cheap fodder

Tom,

I had the same problem. But I REALLY, REALLY like Lugers.

I think I may have some sort of strange and rare addiction...

I work a full-time job, a part-time job, have one successful home business making tie-dye apparel and jewelry, and am ramping up another making custom stone pistol grips to pay the bills, fund my habit, and get the missus something sparkly once in awhile to keep her happy (distracted). There's nothing you can't accomplish if you really want it!
