Sir, welcome to the forum, the value of the pistol is in the $1200+ range, especially with the matching magazines and the holster. And that is conservative. Its a beautiful gun. Now here is the fun part. The holster could, and this isn't definite, have origonated with Bavarian Regiment/Reserve 16, 11 ?, 3rd Squadron, second company. This was also known as 16th Bavarian Reserve Infantrie Regiment List, named after the commander as was the custom in German units through WWII. It was more likely in the 16th Bavarian Reserve than WWI Luftwaffe. And since that is the unit from which Der Furher began his rise to tryanny its likely more collectable than the pistol and possibly be substantial in value. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
