1936 S/42 P-08 Luger           

                  

That rat bastard Spielberg is responsible for me buying so many 1936 Lugers over the years.

            

Don't get me wrong, I think the man is a genius, and the finest film maker around. But when I was a Senior in High School, he went and released "Raiders of the Lost Ark".

As you may recall, the opening scene set that movie in 1936.

1936.

1936 was also the year Adolf Hitler, and Nazi Germany hosted the summer Olympic games in Berlin.

Hitler wanted to show the world the unbridled supremacy of his Aryan supermen.

   

Until a young black American named Jesse Owens spanked the Hell out of the whole Third Reich.

In 1936.
