What was your first Luger?/ What got you into collecting Lugers?

While my father and I together bought a mismatched 1939 Mauser Luger, the first one I bought personally was an Alphabet commercial. All matching with an excellent bore, I paid $70 for it in 1966 in a pawn shop on First Street in Seattle. The stock lug had been partly ground off but it shot well and was reliable. I finally sold it some 30 years later.

In case someone on this forum might have it, the serial number is 6885n
