I enjoy reading those old '60's publications and ads.
Man, if we knew then what we know now, we'd stock up on certain items, like $40 Lugers, Colts, FN action, etc.
Some things today are better, like powder selection, modern bullets, etc. But, those old classic guns are something else.

Your comment made me remember something my ol dad used to tell me. He fought as an infantryman in the Battle of The Bulge, and during his time he said Lugers were nice to collect and trade for, among the soldiers, but they weren't all that big a deal. You'd see guys walking around with ten to twenty of them at the time...a single coat hanger through the trigger guard of all of em for easier carrying.
That must have been a sight to see.
