Luger pr0duction

I don't think Interarms had anything to do with the Orimar Lugers. That's probably a case of the fingers typing faster than the brain.

I count five lines. I count the Mauser re-intro line as a seperate line because while they did buy the Bern line, they scrapped most of it and the majority of the Mauser re-intro line was new.

I think the majority of the Mauser re-intro's were destined for the US market via Interarms.

It is my understanding that the Bern line was purchased new from DWM.

I am curious myself about the Orimar story. Why did distribution pass from Mitchell? My understanding is it went from Mitchell to Stoeger, and that the manufacture was Aimco, later changing their name to Orimar. But I wouldn't bet more than $2 on any of my Orimar history.
