Ok
Seeing as Lugers and Volvos are on topic enough for LUG
I've got a question. Years ago while in a military museum
in Indonesia I asked the curator's assistant if I could play with the guns.
To my shocking surprise he said sure! Well, I worked BARS Sterlings
Thomsons Parabellums, Oddball looking colt autos that I've never seen
anywhere again and lots of other wonderful pieces. Among them was a
Chekoslovakian Husquavera if that's how you spell it. Anyway This thing
looked just like a P38. Until this day I can't figure out if it was a licensed
or unliscensed copy or something that just looked like a P38. Would anybody know?
Thanks in advance

wagon...

Greg, Katy and I retired(sold it for $300 to a neighbor that has been fixing
it up for his wife to drive to work just as we expected he would) our 30
year old dark green 1967 Volvo station wagon.  Parented two fine boys with
the help of that reliable automobile.  I just got tired synchronizing the
carbs, etc.
