Where would I find a good quality repro tool ? Need one for a Luger 1916 I'm considering buying.

Hi Luger 1920.... There are some good repros that are almost indistinguishable from the originals.. and a cloudy bunch of tools that are hard to discern original or not? Then the standard repro which are mostly junk for one reason or another... Ebay is loaded with them.. I have some tools that I am not sure if original WW1 or not, but very good quality none the less... $35.00 each... and then you figure it out?...

…. If interested, email me at [email protected] best to all, til...lat'r.....GT...

I moved your question to its own posting, no reason to jump onto another posting.
Also made it where you will get notified of a posting.

I personally dislike repro tools, I have had one bend on me (tip) and a real tool is so much stronger and not that much money. In addition to WW2 and earlier, the DDR tools are very well made.
