Ed was our carbine poster child. We lived though the maturation and eventual birth. Half of the excitement are the morsels of progress. Picking out shades wood for the grip and shock is like pulling back another layer on anticipation. That is why the is a "Twenty~Five" days of Christmas! Each Day Is Another Day Closer! Believe me it won't be that long! ~Eric

Default Eugene....

Sometimes we go thru life, and our view, and opinions, are formed in the presence of all the modern tech that surrounds us every minute of every day. With that in mind, it is easy to see why we are frustrated when events don't occur with our plan and personal time clock. In my very limited view, and my limited skill sets, I have come to appreciate "old timey" machinist skills as an art rather that a task... If not an art, it certainly is in the gray area of high talent that surrounds such Luger quests that very rarely come around?
It is pretty much considered normal, that a true artist is usually some what eccentric, and probably the last thing in the world they possess, is the ability to run a business... At least as we would normally expect a business to run. Eugene, may or may not fit this description, but I know for sure, his skills are not available everywhere, or for that matter, anywhere?... When you build a Luger from scratch, you ARE DWM, Mauser, Krieghoff, Erfurt as well as Martz & Krause... Stop and think about it for a little bit... I pay my money and take my chances, he's always done good by me.... I'll leave it at that.... best to all, til...lat'r...... GT
