if luger pistols are your forte this is a good site

nice documented lugers, artillery p08s pics and history..

La Luger Artiglieria - The Luger Artillery

 

That's rather a nice site - I particularly like the 'Your Luger' picture gallery.....

 

a few bobs worth there martin....

 

Oh My Kingdom For a luger, I've wanted one since i saw Sargent York with one. to bad i don't have 1,000 to 2,000 dollars to drop on one

 

hi mauser, if you go to my profile and album pics, you will see mine...enjoy, ray..

 

hi mauser, luger and schmeisser being the ones to own. my choice personally, ray..

 

Just checked out your profile for the first time myself, ray.....lovely stuff there, the Luger and the Wall of Sound.....

 

thanks martin,much appreciated, glad you like the militaria..

 

Ill bet that some of those Lugers pictured there were the former property of jerko slimeball former Texas Gunshows dealer: mike morris :lol: :lol:

I once had a Luger-one of those so called Black Widow Lugers. I liked the pistol but gimme a Walther P-38 anytime anyday. My dream Luger to own is a 1917 DWM made Artillery Luger-I love those the most.

 

just to have one carl,thats most desireable for many..the feel of one is just so good in the hand...

 

I stupidly traded it away-back to the Gent I got it from. Last i heard, he sold it for about $10,000.

 

life's merry go round carl, what made you part with it!

 

hi ray, truthfully, i can't remember what i got for it/ I THINK I got a cased Walther PP, and probably the generals Collartabs and a few other things. Been too long since that trade happened to accurately remember ;-))

 

but you still have the items from original deal! yes?

 

Everything but the cased Walther PP.

 

ooh! regrets on parting with that?

 

Not really. It was a less than stellar one and kinda looked ugly ;-))

 

are guns a small part of your collecting then carl..ray..

 

Hi Ray, at one time, I had (at the sametime)

1) Two Lithgow Lee-Enfields.
2) One Mauser 98.
3) One M-100 Carbine w/ two 100round tube magazines (which didn't work worth a shi_).
4) Two SKS Carbines-one a minty Russian one built in 1953, the other an rather ugly piece of Chinese manufactured garbage heap built in the early 1990s.
5) A nice all matching numbered-M-1 Garand-so-called "Garand Tankers" Model.
6) My first Walther P-38-which was a Rusian Battlefield pickup-still fairly nice one with all-matching numbers.
7) 20 Mosin-Nagant Rifles.
8) One 50 cal. Long Tom Rifle.
9) My Mothers .22 Cal Rifle which I inherited.
10) One M-1 Carbine.
11) An absoolutly beautiful Mini-14 w/ 150 round snail drum magazine.
12) A Chinese-made Uzi-clone. This was a well-made weapon and I oved taking it out to a friends Ranch to hunt Rattlesnakes with. I had a hellfire trigger system for it which made it fully (and legally) automatic.
13) an Intratec DC-9-which was a good piece to have and never fouled up on me.
14) An early made Chinese AK-47-which was actually decently manufactured weapon but its stock was made from some crappy wood-and looked it too.
15) An absolutly mint-1913 Swedish Mauser-which was one of the rifles I gave to my nephews for Christmas one year. They absolutely love that rifle ad take it out to plink-often.

I no longer have any of those guns as I sold or traded them all off over the years and all I have now are:

1) One 1898 30-40 Krag Carbine (supposedly Philippine Contract Carbine)
2) One S42 K98 German Army Sniper Rifle variant with 25 round Ansteckmagazine. This is NOT an issued piece but was a prototype rifle of limited manufacture. Limited to from possibly 20-no more than 200 examples built between 1935-to 1941. Mine was built in 1935 and has a unique serial number of: 261-T. It's 25 run magazine was made in 1936 and is permanently fixed to the rifle. These magazines were originally for an MG-08 I think? or an MG-13??? I can't remember correctly.

I take that back, I never got rid of my 50 Cal Long Tom Elephant gun. I still have it, just have not had it on hand-for several years as my Nephews borrowed it and I never asked for it back.

Other firearms I have owned but no longer do-thanks to selling/trading and to theft are:

1) Three Walther P-38s. Traded two and one was stolen.
2) One of those so-called: Black Widow Lugers-which are actually those that were Portugese contract.
3) Two-Inland M-1 Carbines.
4) Another Mauser K-98 Rifle.
5) Lt.Gen Francis P. Hardaways Remington-Rand made Colt.45. Hardaway was MacArthurs Artillery General and was also the first man to head up the Civil Air Patrol-when it was created.
6) A cased Walther PP.
7) Cased Walther PPK-this one was of new manufacture and had a plastic case :-((
8) a .380 Swiss "Sphinx" which I absolutely loved having and will buy another one when I can afford to do so?
9) A non-National-Match M-14 Rifle-which i absolutely loved having and will be buying another when affordable?

And I THINK that's every firearm I ever owned at onetime or another? ;-))

Now for non-guns-well-remember that repo MP-40? Its soon to be in my hands-weather not-with-standing.

 

a lot has passed thro your hands over the yrs then carl, some nice piece's too, a variety of guns/rifle's did you ever display them all? wel at least you'll have the mp40 soon, and hopefully it meets with your approval 100%..ray..
