Hello to all,

I just found this forum today and signed up. Thought I should introduce myself.

I have been a gun collector and avid shooter since childhood. Lugers were a fascination as long as I can remember. I think I was 13 years old when I got my first one for Christmas after months of nagging my father. It was a byf41, and boy was I proud! I have dabbled in Lugers since then, but I'm not to be considered a serious collector.

My most serious sickness is double rifles. If any of you are members or visitors on the NitroExpress.com forums you may know me from there.

I come here mostly as a student. I have a modest collection of Lugers that would be laughable to the advanced collector. Still I find them fascinating, and the details are never mastered.

If I make a silly statement, please correct me gently. I'm here to learn, not preach. I look forward to the learning experience.

Finally, I'll tell you Google brought me here. I was searching for the little flat spring that tensions the magazine catch on a P.08 Luger. If anybody has one for sale or can direct me to one I would be grateful.

Thanks
Curl
