While listening to some "Camera Eye", I'll might as well post a photo of my new addition to my least expensive, fun hobby of mine.
Early 80's Yashica FX-D Quartz. The SE doesn't really mean much, just something to make it sound fancy. Its got a hefty weight to it, but its all good to me.
Its really a fun old school camera, I wish I had a close focus lens to go along with it, but these will do for what I use it for. For $25, its probably the best deal on a fully working camera, why not I said.

P08 are hell expensive today and troublesome to work out, many of them never functioned correctly back in the day they were still made. The P38 is the superior pistol just in accounts for reliability and simplicity, many Luger holders didn't use their pistols often and is why many are in good shape. Plus the toggles were still the main trouble spots on these sexy pistols, they either cracked from the pressure and cold or simply remained open (when empty mag) when the mag is still full.
However not all P08s are troublesome, many can still function properly, but you would have to shove top dollar for these examples.

We once had a C96, interesting gun. The only thing awkward about it is the integral 10 round box magazine that isn't removable, but the 10 round stripper clip helps ease the awkwardness for quick reloading.
Front heavy because of the magazine, but its an absolute joy to fire because of this transferred weight which reduces the recoil to a degree. 7.63mm isn't really a high powered round, but its made to make the pistol more manageable to continous fire.
Sadly we got rid of ours, it was only 1920's production, but it was an interesting piece to the collection.
