First time shooting a 9mm Luger.

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to hand a young lad a 9mm Luger made in 1940 and coach him through a few magazines of Ball ammo on my backyard range. The fellow has a few Glocks in 9mm, 40 S&W, etc., but he never dealt with the toggle apparatus of the Luger. He shot the pistol well and appreciated the run through on a vintage handgun.

Many current day handgunners are reading about and handling the current generation of handguns. I find it rewarding to put older, vintage handguns into the hands of these young'uns and watch them handle the old classics. It seems they all like the "Oldies" and appreciate the chance to handle the "Old Stuff."
