Passing of a member
It is with a heavy heart that I must post that Howard Collins, aka policeluger passed away on Nov 26, 2018. Thank you all for the joy you brought into his life. He has been ill for a few years and probably didn't join in on many conversations here lately. But as you know the German Luger was his passion. His services will be in Ridgecrest, CA on Monday Dec 3, 2018 at 501 N Norma, 11am. If any of you are nearby and would like to attend.

I also am saddened to hear of Howard's passing. I had several productive discussions with Howard online here at LugerForum. His wealth of knowledge will be missed by all.
