What is the value in the real world of this Luger

siriusrising

I had it on GB for 900 starting bid and no one bought it. I would think it would be worth that but Lugers are a mine field of sub categories, markings, ww1 ww2 commercial, frankenlugers ect. This one was for export, Its stamped Germany front frame, no date on the breach, all matching numbers but not all parts are marked like on WW1 and 2 Luger's. Blueing is about 60 to 70% IMO. Mag is marked to the gun but its a more modern mag. The gun is chambered for 30 Luger. I shot it to make sure it was in good working order and it ran a mag just fine. All in all not a bad Luger and I know it will not be close to what a WW2 Nazi marked Luger or a WW1 Military Luger will bring. But a couple of years ago any Luger that was shoot-able would bring in several hundred even in poor condition. Maybe its the economy right now. Thanks for any guidance. BTW I am selling several guns for a lady who is a friend who's husband passed and she wants them to be gone. I will make her an offer on it if it does not end up selling but need to know the value. Thanks

    Its actually good. Its hard to take a picture but its not pitted or damaged that I can see.

    I think it is one of the multitude of "1920" Lugers made in .30 because the Frenchies thought that too many 9mms would go to the Germans' heads and they would get all aggressive again. Which they did.

    You can get a nicer example at Simpsons full retail for $2000.

    I was asking 900 starting bid and got no bid.

    condition is the 'killer'. It's a nice 'shooter' grade and I'd say $800/$900. If I was 'looking' for one I'd start at $750 and go up if I felt like it.

    If I were in the market for one, I'd definitely go $900 because I don't have one.

    Like above, 30 cal. shooter and the market imo soft on many items currently. Entry level commercial, yea $750.

    Post a link up on the General Discussion side and give us a heads up.

    Bore erosion is pretty clear in the last pic.
