Luger and Holster ID
 
10 Attachment(s)
This Luger came into my cousin's possession and I know nothing about Lugers. I have tried to research and there seem to be a lot of variables. I have included every number I can find on the pistol, magazine and holster. Any information you can share, along with approximate value would be appreciated.

Hi Mike,
Welcome to the forum! Your Luger is a G Date, meaning it was made in 1935. Unfortunately your photos are too poor for us to assess condition, but the holster, at least, looks rather nice.

Looks like it was pretty well pitted and blued over. Worn on the right side..some soft edges. Condition affects value for sure. Hard to place a value but purely on condition I would say $800? The magazine was originally German but appears to be used, re numbered by the East Germans.


Depending on what the holster looks like inside it could be worth $350-400

Metal edges in the photos look soft, so it's likely been refinished. Tones look dip refinished, so possibly a vopo or DDR captured pistol.

Renumbered magazine, the body likely formed metal.

Pitting knocks down value somewhat as well.

I'd estimate $750 value if it shoots reliably.
