Iowa Show: New Luger

10-22-2001, 09:30 AM

I was at an Iowa gun show over the weekend and was lucky enough to find a great luger. I have allways wanted to get a Mauser/ Interarms reproduction but could'nt justify the $1000.00 price tag. I started out the show looking at a Walther PPKs which was in .22lr. I had wanted one but something told me to hold off. The second table from the end of the show had a NIB AE Luger(Interarms/Mauser)for sale. I looked it over and decided to do what ever I needed to do to purchase it(this is where the Luger addiction kicks in) It has the test target, tool, extra mag, manual, and even the original desicant bag. As I stated earlier I "found" a way to get it! I was litterally estatic the rest of the weekend. When my wife asked me how the show was, I simply replied "pretty good!" They are really pretty cool guns, but don't compare to the originals at all.

Tim,

I definitely see signs of "Luger Addiction" in your posting. Beware, it only gets worse!
