My new byf 41

[John Sabato]

dhusker,

Congrats on the the purchase of a byf 41 Luger... they are among the best ever produced by Mauser.

Now, I hope you won't mind a couple of comments... first.. when you post on the Lugerforum contains photos, please upload the photos directly to the Lugerforum server using the link at the top of the page. Photos must be under 200Kbytes... One of the reasons why you should do this is that public image websites like the Photobucket often go out of business or reconfigure themselves and the links go dead so folks who don't read your post on the day you do it may never get to see the photos.

Another reason to put the photos here instead of somewhere else, is many of the public photo websites are blocked by the security software of many businesses and government offices so that folks who work behind a security firewall would never be able to see your photos while working. Posting your photos on the Lugerforum server means that if a person has reading access to the forum, they will also be guaranteed to see the photos.

While the photos you posted show a shiney looking byf 41, the lighting does not permit those looking to adequate see the finish and markings on your Luger... please try to use adequate lighting without causing reflections when ever possible. A lighter or brighter background will provide a better contrast with the item you are photographing.

Thanks for sharing your purchase with the membership and the photos of your byf Luger and I hope you will consider these other factors when posting photos to share in the future.
