New guy from germany

Kiel-78 · 12-20-2022, 07:29 PM

Hello to all.

I am the new guy here in the forum. Right now I do not have a "Luger", but I am working on that topic.

I am from germany and interested in old guns and old technique in general. As you may know, we have quite hard gun laws over here, so it is only possible to own live guns with a permit. Luckily I have one

There is a numbermatching, all original G43 and a MP43 in my safe. The MP43 is converted to semi-auto to fit the law. If there are any questions about the MP43 family... feel free to ask. I will try to give a good answer ;-)

Welcome to the Luger Forum !

Which luger would you like in your collection?

I don't know much about European guns laws.

I have a relative who spent 10 years living in Regensburg, after retiring from the US Army.
He even owned a house there, but he could never get a hunting license or permit for a rifle.

Welcome! We'd love to see pics of the G43 and MP43 (we realize there are more guns than just Lugers).

Welcome to the one and only original Lugerforum Kiel-78.

Like gunnertwo I would love to see pics of your MP43 and is your MP43 an actual Maschinenpistole 43 or a later STG44 ??

Always wanted one myself but alas gun ownership in Canada, and indeed around the world, is under attack.

Thanks for the G43
