Another of my questions
I was grazing Bob Simpson site. He was selling two lugers described as 'Reworks'. After 13 years of luger collecting I finally noticed. What is a rework? Is a rework good or bad? Thank You in advance! Eric

Eric, neither of the guns you refer to appears to be a "rework." I'm afraid the term is used reflexiively and erroneously for many police Lugers. Tinker and Gruber propose more precise terms on p. 2 of their new book Police Lugers.
