Advice on 1st Luger

SailorBill · 05-05-2014, 05:27 PM

This is my inaugural post, although I’ve been lurking for over a year. I’ve now reached the point where I must expose my lack of knowledge and ask for your opinions and advice. It’s my “what should be my first Luger” question. I’ve learned from this forum that it’s a good idea to own a “shooter” pistol before getting into the collectibles. With that in mind, and after spending too many hours looking at Luger descriptions on the Simpson site. I’m looking at two possible candidates for a fist Luger.

Number one is a classified as a good looking shooter grade DWM 1908 commercial ($1195):

The second is an unfired Interarms American Eagle (Mauser) ($1895):

It’s probably obvious that I must have a need for a good looking range pistol . . .

Your comments on these Lugers, their quality, other alternatives, etc, are appreciated.
