Shooting a Collector Grade Luger

Silvereagle29 · 04-03-2003, 04:38 AM

Yes my friends, here sits Bob White with tears running down his cheeks as he stares at this mint Police Luger he holds in his hand. Five minutes ago it was a matched 99% rig with two matching magazines, holster and tool numbered to the gun. Now there is only a hole where the extractor once set, with no extractor in sight. Famous last words, I only wanted to shoot it a couple times. Soooo??? When does a Luger break? If, it's a mint rig like the so called Mr Whites' once was, it will probably break after a couple of rounds. If, the pistol is a doggy WW-1 rework with mis-matched numbers you can probably shoot it everyday for the next ten years and couldn't break it if one wanted to. The moral being, if it's not broke, don't break it. Message from the Phantom collector of two matching mag Lugers.
