On My Soapbox (Stainless Lugers, Debates & a General note - LONG!)

Dok · 07-30-2001, 07:20 PM

I have asked HÃ?Â¥kan to write an article (to be posted on this site) that spells out his opinions about SS Lugers, backed up with all the facts he can muster. I will edit this document for grammatical correctness, and post it to the General Info section.

After that event I am trusting that HÃ?Â¥kan will refer posters on this topic to read his in-depth article instead of "evanglizing" on his viewpoint whenever the topic comes up. Hopefully this will cut down on the "noise" over this topic.

Just so that everyone also understands, I am "pro" stainless steel Lugers as a reproduction of one of the finest weapons ever made, and feel that this forum should be a safe environment in which to discuss the operation, joys and woes of this particular handgun. I do not appreciate that people feel this is a topic that should be avoided, and if the steps I have taken to reduce the "bad blood" over this issue are not effective, then stronger measures will be called for, but WILL NOT include the banning of this topic.

Thank you to all who try to keep this topic within bounds, it is after all YOUR Forum, and I am adamant that SS Lugers WILL be discussed sanely and in a dignified manner on this Forum.
