Pete,
First - WELCOME TO THE LUGERFORUM!! I notice that this is your first post! We hope to see you here more often! Second - it would appear that the server is a bit "haywire".. I've seen no fewer than 4 different Avatars for you today?? Everything from a "dancing spiderman" to a "monkey shaking head". Not sure what's up with that?? I'll check into it - be very sure I will... Now about Paranoid Pete in your profile... I was CERTAIN I saw that, too - as part of your title?? Should just be a temporary glitch... And based on the poll - thank goodness I don't collect Simson Lugers. looks like a mighty competitive area of collecting... Again - Welcome to the Forum!!! John D. |

Thanks for the warm welcome John.
BTW...I did have more than 4300 postings at one time. I assume one of the Administrators is playing fun with my avatar...I only made one change after the "fun & games" you guys are having...the last avatar I added to my personal profile was the Swiss soldier standing next to his horse. I have changed my avatar this past year every month or so...always with a Swiss theme. BTW...I thought our personal profiles were just that...accessible only to the individual users ??? Knowing anyone with administrator access going in and changing it willy-nilly will tend to make me even more paranoid... |

Pete, except for changing posts, only ONE admin could change anything like that... But ole John must not have liked that I changed the 52 to 1 and made me competitive, which is good, cuz now my Simpson' are worth more, as there are more kollekteors
I thought the dancing spiderman was pretty cool btw

Ed,
How about "correcting' the Simson votes...so it is more realistic. Folks may not have confidence in the value of Polls with some "for fun" skewing... |

I voted that I collect and shoot since I've not really decieded to focus just yet. I'm still in the "gotta have one of each" phase.
And there's no mention of Artillery Lugers either...

Sorry, Steve...I just assumed Artillery lugers in the Imperial group...but you are right...they should have been in a class by themselves as there were Weimar era LP-08's as well.
Maybe one of the LP-08 fans will be motivated to create a Poll just for Artillery lugers...maybe listing each choice by maker and year issued ? It might be nice to have someone start a breakdown of the HK lugers as well. |

I was just goshin' ya Pete. Just a simple yank of the leg is all...
It's interesting to see how many different ~basic~ areas of Luger collecting there are. You just don't get that with almost any other gun. I suppose that's why we're all here though, huh...

Steve, to tell the truth and I am sure others, i selected more than one area.
I collect Weimar Police, but then branched into Simson's and now, have uh, several.... Ed

Polls seem to have a half-life of a bad fart in a closed-up room.
Bringing this Poll up to the top for others... if you want to join the voting... |

I want to be able to shoot any Luger I own without fear of lowering its value. So, I guess that keeps me out of the high end pistols.
I would very much like to own a shooter with a 6-8 inch barrel. I find them very appealing. I'd like to have a Navy, but for now that's wishful thinking...... Still looking for Luger number two..... Dave in TN. |
