My Krieghoff
What value would it have in the U.S. approximately?
does this gun have anything special? very good conservation status. All parts same numbering. Including charger number. Number P 232 https://i.postimg.cc/LsysbqPR/AAC-Krieghoff-1.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/RFN05M1t/AAC-Krieghoff-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/63gpBDzm/AAC-Krieghoff-3.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/prjXrq6X/AAC-Krieghoff-4.jpg |
Hi Antonio,
That HK is probably worth more in Spain than it is over here as it is likely a Condor Legion gun. I'm sure your guess as to value would be better than mine. Regards, Norm |
Simpson Ltd has a number of those for sale.

Didn't they produce ten thousand a year?

What and why the difference between dated or different codes used by Kreighoff. How much did those made in the war years differ, if any from prewar?
|
Does it have a star on the right receiver ?
|
Yes, it has a star on the right receiver
and also under the canyon. |
The "side marked" Kreighoffs were nomally standard commerical DWM lugers marketed by KH during the Weimar era. I've never seen one with a KH marked toggle assy and a P prefix serial. TH
|
Gibsons book has much info on these " P codes " and they are also called " commercials " .
Star means it failed inspection and was rejected by the LwA2 inspector . Not unheard of to see this side frame inscription . Probably from 1938 or 1939 assy . |
Castellano, where do you see a "star" on the right receiver? I cannot see it in the photo
|
REF: Star means it failed inspection and was rejected by the LwA2 inspector . ???
Then?? Isn't that a good Krieghoff? I made a bad purchase? cost me 2500 euros in Collector's Book I find it strange that the star's mark means rejected. In Spain precisely in some pistols, the star means the opposite, that is, approved https://i.postimg.cc/4xdKVMvV/IMG-6695.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/bv1qtH51/IMG-6697.jpg |
I read somewhere that the star mearly means the gun was pulled out of military guns for commercial use~I believe it was Gibson! It is still a valuable commercial Kreighoff luger! Check out this Legacy Kreighoff variations video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEeFlXKkj08

Confirmed in Toms' video star does mean legit made for commercial use! I SENT THIS THREAD TO HIM! Kreighoff is top of the line! The wouldn't approve for sale a defective or substandard luger and market it for sale! They were very proud of their brand and protected it!
|
Then
mean "rejected"? ... or the star means "approved," ? and commercial weapon, it's something I was already clear about. |
The star is a reject mark .
It does not mean it is a bad HK . It means it did not pass inspection and was put with others that had issues . After the 10,000 contract was filled these were fixed if possible and sold on the commercial market . These generally bring more than common military contract ones as they are much less common . This is all readily available info so why all this muddy water ??? |
What is your serial number? I want to see if it is recorded in our Kreighoff data base. Congrads!
|
From the original post P232 is the pistols serial.
|
I sent the pictures of his luger to Tom Whiteman at Legacy Arm an expert on Kreighoffs and he responded "This is a commercial Kreighoff. "The star proof was was instead of an Eagle L 2 proof. It will be on the frame of all commercial HKs~https://search.aol.com/aol/video;_yl...91&action=view
