Hello Gentlemen.

thanks for the updated information on my two lugers. as a quick update I took the byf42 out for a quick shoot (replaced the original firing pin with a replica first though). It shot wonderfully. I put about 20 rounds thorugh it with no issues. What a joy to shoot! In my opinion the only aspect of the luger that has not aged well is the sight. That tiny little notch is hard to see!

After shooting it, I promptly decided that I would like to shoot lugers more regularly. Just yesterday I picked up a re-blued, "force matched" shooter (with good bore) for $518. It's nothing special, but at least I won't feel guilty shooting it!

Hmm, really exciting to hear that the holster my indeed be authentic. I will take some detailed pictures of the holster and post them shortly.

Thanks again for the great info!
