Frankly I had put these in the "never shoot" category but everyone keeps saying what great shooters they are . . .

Who knows, after all they are not vintage collectible Lugers, I think that if you get one of them as a shooter you do it manly because you want something beautiful to show off at the range and wear marks are not that important at all.
To me a small scratch on a 1900 Luger would be like tearing my heart out, but on those modern productions perhaps a small scratch won't be the end of the world.
