Default Crook uses "rare Nazi pistol" ???

This looks like a Stoeger copy, isn't it? I sure doesn't look like any rare collectable...

It does indeed appear to be a Stoeger .22 Luger--with its front sight busted off and most of the finish removed. That $28k is a real hoot!

I never thought of posing any pistol on a short-stack of Triscuits... And that woman LEO on the left looks like she may not have participated in the foot-chase...

For some reason, it doesn't even look like a Luger.

But it is a Luger. And it is so marked, Stoeger has the rights for the Luger name in the USA.
