I no longer have the beard.
I think the last gunshow I did was around 2009.
2005 through 2007 were the salad days, for sure!]]>

Strange question. Did you really expect to get an answer?

Georg Luger lived 1849 - 1923 and repeating his life's work here couldn't do it justice. The original graveyard in Schöneiche, nowadays on the direct edge of greater Berlin, was obliterated in 1945 by Soviet artillery and the battle to end World War II. A group of enthusiasts set out to find the Luger grave and set up a new headstone, something special.
After much research and effort Georg Luger was found. Money was raised by the German Army Society, Foundation for European Societies of Arms Collectors, the Luger family and other private people to set a granite headstone in the shape of Luger's toggle mechanism, or as they say in German, "knee joint lock" (Kniegelenkverschluß) or "Luger joint". In September of 2018 the mechanism, which also serves as a cross, was installed in a ceremony presided over by the Mayor of Schöneiche, Dr. Geoffrey Sturgess, the author of the three-volume standard work "The Borchardt & Luger Automatic Pistols" and Georg's descendant Prof. Peter Luger.
Today, if you want to see the largest Luger mechanism, visit a little town on the edge of Berlin and visit the man himself.
