Is it legal to own?

AGE...Thank you for your sincere honest reply. I know I have a lot to learn. This seems to be a very interesting area of firearms.
I had been giving thoughts about the Sharps Rifles but there really isn't anywhere to shoot them (in Vermont)to their potential 800/900/1000 yds. As though I could see that far! I get whims sometimes. The P-08's though...hmmmm!
I have a "Holy Grail" collectable sxs shotgun (only 22 made in ALL gauges) that I think it's about time to 'pass on'. It would take a while to sell being a niche market. A Luger(s) on the other hand would be almost instantanious for heirs to dispose of.
It is strange, I never thought I would be really interested in handguns. Now I see myself being drawn in. I have shot Ruger .22 target pistols and enjoyed shooting them. (I impressed myself) The "Luger" grip is just so right!
My true loves are Lever Actions. Funny, I feel defensless if they are not nearby. I quess it's what you are used to.(55years of shooting them) Who knows, with luck maybe I could get another good 15/20 years with a P-08. By then I would have to tie it to something to steady it!
Regards, Jack
