Well, I just concluded my trip to Ralph Shattuck's wonderful home and luger HEAVEN...!

I am happy for the chance to go into my local gun shop and see maybe 6-8 lugers. I just went into shock seeing over 1,000 lugers, IN ONE PLACE!!! I think I am still sweating...

I did pick up an "un-advertised" 06/24 Swiss in very, very, very excellent (dare I say almost Minty) shape with pristine border checked grips !

I will post some photos this weekend when I get back home.

I am glad that I got to Ralph's place before the Forum members decended for the Luger Fest.

I do not think this 06/24 Swiss would have made it through the visit by you folks !

I am so excited to have purchased this, my 2nd. luger (my first real collector piece) and do appreciate all the Forum members' help and advice to this Luger newcomer.

Now,... off to start hunting my 3rd. luger...
