Hi Again:

As to the Interarms Parabellum Pistols of the late 60s and early 70s, my Dad took the pistol in his hand, felt the strangeness of the grip safety, and pronounced the design an utter failure!!!

It seemed the new design ( a bastardized 1929 Swiss, selling for $265.00 at Woolco) didn't recreate the original natural feeling he was so accustomed to with the original P-08s.

Thirty-seven years later, I still agree with his original observation regarding the Parabellums of that period, they just don't feel like a "Luger" in your hand nor when you shoot one of them.

Your comments?
