My father's best friend brought a Luger back with him after WWII; I knew a good thing when I saw it, so I always wanted one too (should have bought one in the 1960s when they were available for around $60., but didn't. Bought one a few years ago, and love it. What design, and what workmanship! I also have a .455 Webley, and like it too, but Lugers are like diamonds, in my opinion.
