My mistake.

I thought it was interesting that Stoger Arms patented the name Luger and put it on their 22 LR copy. Once again it is a fun little pistol to shoot.

I bet! And the looks of that pistol are awesome, too, no matter the caliber. Did you know that the Luger pistol in .45Auto was trialed by the US army, and nearly became the standard service pistol instead of the 1911?

what a great movie!

Yep My kids must of watched it 1000 times! I just order it for my grandkids!

RD you can add that to the favorite movie list.

Too bad they didn't have Lugers in the movie...

Luger in a 45. Now that would be a pistol to have.

Thanks for the movie Fyodor. Makes me want to get my 22 cal. out more than before. I live approximately 50 miles from the Rock Island Auction Co. Never have taken the time to check them out. If I can find an extra million bucks in a drawer I forgot about I might go to one of their auctions.

Until you find that lost million, you can watch the forgotten weapons videos, he's showing a lot of the guns that are for sale there.

I think I could have spent the million there easily, too.

It's in reference to my earlier statements about not getting involved in a land war in Asia or arguing about Lugers with a German.

Those who get it, get it. Those who don't get it, don't get it.

Now back to the topic at hand. I agree that a Luger in 45 ACP would be something, but I also do not have an extra $1,000,000 in my firearms budget.
