Welcome Jim,

Your gun is nice in that it doesn't seem to have been force-matched, with over-stamped numbers, and the "X" all huge and nasty; yours is discreet. I also like "collectible" shooters. This one looks like it might be one you'd shoot not that often, if it matches.

The Russian captures are becoming more desirable, particularly the ones that were not diddled with that much. Some even retain an original finish. More good pics would help in your getting the best advice!

Yes, this is the first pic I've seen with the "X" not overstamping the serial...

The price is not outrageous, maybe a bit high, but since you didn't indicate if F2F, or FFL/S&H fees/tax, we'll assume that's the base price...Still not bad...Luger values tend to be geographical; in Western New York State, $1K is about average for a decent looking Luger, whether mismatched or RC/VoPo...
