A Intersting Question Never Asked That I Recall~

cirelaw · 05-18-2021, 04:13 PM

How many lugers have you owned? How many do you presently own? I own fourteen now and owned over 20 at one time! Four of these I will never sell! Eric

Ron Wood · 05-19-2021, 01:15 AM

50

It's not the numbers, it's the quality and rarity.

The major factor is the passion! We have that here.

I would answer right now, "not enough".

But most I ever owned, I would answer, "too many".

My first was a DDR rework. No, I don't have it any longer.

I now mainly focus on WWII production Lugers, and Nazi depot reworks. (see attached photo of 3 Krieghoff reworks. From top to bottom; Police, Military, and commercial.)

More than 20 less than 30. Bill

cirelaw · 05-25-2021, 08:30 PM

Bill, Do you remember your First? If so do you still have it? Eric

Edward Tinker · 05-25-2021, 11:13 PM

I still own my first, an LP08 that was buffed bad and reblued - it shoots great. I traded a 4 inch Python for it - they were about the same price at the time

Most folks don't like to say how many guns they have.... I used to own about 30+ lugers and then sold some for money, sold some to get better quality and rarer.

I now have maybe 15 or so?
A 1926 Simson, a couple of 1925 Simsons, a couple more, 2 or 3 police lugers, a carbine or two (both shooter quality)
