Post New Stainless Story...

Where do they get these stories???

Check into this guys story on Lugers (Lugars). I'm sure Mitchell would be suprised at this story. The worst part is, he probably believes it... A New Version of the Luger Story...

Of all the twisted accounts of Luger production, this has to be the most bizarre. It is sad, but you are probably correct that he believes this nonsense.

Hummmmmm........ I wonder if he'd believe me if I told him that simply sighting a Swedish Mauser would turn his right eye red?

I also wonder how much Mitchel Arms paid the German Government for the surplus - well used, no doubt - Luger manufacturing machinery?

Geeeez..........

Frankly, this reminds me of some of he bull I have read in the early American accounts of the Luger Pistol, perhaps, from the first addition of "Luger Tips" (now let's all chop those recoil springs, boys).

Well, not really, but too close for comfort.

I wonder just what this guy does for a living? I hope it is in some creative field (Law, perhaps), as he would be missing his calling otherwise. Ha!!

He's gotta be from the south. Probably lives down the road from me and I just haven't met him yet.

<img border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" title="" src="graemlins/cussing.gif" /> I AM SO EMBARRASSED! It is evident from the statement at the top of the website about only selling to Texas residents that this poor misguided soul is a current Texas resident. <img border="0" alt="[ouch]" title="" src="graemlins/c.gif" />
Surely not a native Texican, though! <img border="0" alt="[crying]" title="" src="graemlins/crying.gif" />

The guy resembles the late Pete Fountain (see the bottom pictures), the jazz clarinet player from New Orleans (N'arlands)
