Not meaning to rant, but I get a bit tired of hearing about how waffenfabrik operates. There are folks in all countries faking up and making guns; it just so happens that there are a lot more lugers here in the USA to mess with.

The guns that I worry about are the "very" nice ones; guns 65-95 yrs old and have no patinia or age to them.
