First Luger...Can Anyone Help?

You welcome for the advice - believe me, I was where you are now... Unfortunately - my "first" Luger was one I just had to have. So I bought it. Some time later (about 4 weeks to be exact ) - I decided to get serious about collecting - and sold that first Luger at a huge loss as it didn't get me where I wanted to be in starting on the variation I wanted to collect in...

In retrospect - and if I was smarter - I would have liked my first acquisition to be the cornerstone of my collection today. Perhaps not to be the "best" piece as you build the collection - but maybe the most personally meaningful, if you know what I mean..??

Let us know what you end up with, OK?? And again - ask any question you'd like - anytime!!
