It looked gtreat - but with the glues of the time (I was in 5th grademaybe and at the time used Duco Cement when the small local stores were out of testors) - it constantly fell apart or jammed. I finally discovered Revell and Aurora cement - world of difference. Val Kraut >I don't recall the manufacturer, but I bought a German Luger plastic kit >some decades back that was 1:1 scale.

It was real enough it freaked out a neighborhood cop who'd thought I'd lifted it from my dad the gun nut's collection. And he owned nothing Kraut, period.

I couldn't afford it but had both Pyro Colts, the Blunderbuss, the Italian Flintlock and the Kentucky Rifle. Except for the rifle, the others were sold.

A quick Google of this company turned up one website that went nowhere, so I'd have to assume that the company is long-since out of business. > I recently stumbled across a forgotten horde of ancient "Scale > Modeler" magazines from the late 1960s and early 1970s and found an ad > for "Replica Models" out of Alexandria VA (Oct. 1968) and a two-page > ad from Fenruary 1973.

They were on Franklin St. than moved to Slaters La. They sold no models at all, but a wide range of replica military equipment, and uniforms. They were well known for their replica guns. All kinds, As a kid I had fond memories of having one of their artillery Lugers, and my cousin still has a replica MP 40. These were made out of metal, and dissembled just like the real thing. They also sold real uniforms, should have got one then with the prices they way they are now ! Well... At least I have a real Luger now :) (a 1920 DWM model that is...)

Was that the place just down the street from Buzzy's Antique model shop (can't remember its real name)? I was at Buzzy's in '92 and went closer to the Patomic to turn the car around and saw a place with a ~lor~ of military gear, including a Nebelwerfer out front. As I had the wife and chittlens, I didn't have time to stop. >> The Old Man wrote:e >>> I recently stumbled across a forgotten horde of ancient "Scale [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > ~lor~ of military gear, including a Nebelwerfer out front. As I had > the wife and chittlens, I didn't have time to stop. Nope. That shop was called Potomac Arms. Wow another trip down memory lane. Sadly they too are gone. A great gun store, they were an icon of Old Town Alexandria for decades. Right across the street from Interarms too. (also now gone as well) I went and voted on election day 2000, and than went there and bought a Russian 91/30 PU, and another rifle.
