Interesting Luger Photo

I pulled this image off a site that labeled it as an example of stockpiling of captured weapons. I think that the care taken in staging the photo would preclude this. There is some other reason for the collection.

Now, that's just plain bragg'n on someone's part.......

"captured weapns" -- illegal firearms captured by police? Or, GI captured guns collected by someone? Sorry, the meaning is ambiguous in the post.

I bet should the the latter.. too many news on police captured guns these days. Whenever I saw the word "captured", the thought automatically going wrong direction... Pavlov style.

That gaggle of Lugers was the collection/inventory of Mike Morris at one time. Don't know how many of those he still has. The "stockpiling of captured weapons" is pure BS.

I saw the same posting, most were captured weapons, this was the only one out of place
