My reasoning (If you can call it that) on making the 7.65 Mauser Luger a safe queen is that they only made 5070 of them in that caliber. I'd like to find a 9MM with 4'" barrel to shoot, even better if someone else shot it first heh heh. Then of course you worry that someone modified the heck out of the feed ramp or magazines instead of sampling ammo first. As a functioning pistol the Luger doesn't compare to a 1911 anyway, but the last time I shot one was 45 years ago when my dad had one. Heartbreak was he sold it before I was old enough to buy it from him. My appeal to fathers concerning guns is this; If your son or daughter gets big eyed every time you bring out a firearm please please consider it a more important legacy to them than a monetary inheritance.
