New to navy Lugers

Big Norm · 07-26-2002, 01:28 AM

I would do some studying before I started my collection with a $3000 navy Luger. At that price, it is rapidly becoming a counterfeiters choice for making some quick bucks. You will have to learn some details about them to determine the true navy from the fake. Keep reading the forum. It will help a lot. Try to get someone you trust who knows these guns to help you eliminate emotion in your purchase. Dealers cannot always be trusted. They have to know too much about too many guns to be an expert on just a navy Luger or a Dutch 'mint' Luger. Then there is the profit motive. Be especially cautious about ANY 'mint' Luger or ANY Luger with a bright bore.
