Lugers, Luger, Lugers...
 
This fellow is selling a bunch of them on Auction-Arms :

(I think some of his prices are hail-Mary prayers...)

My advise to him would be to invest some money in a better digital camera or lessons on how to use it!:p
One of the first things I learned about selling on the net is to take many high quality pics as possible. Lets the potential buyer know exactly what they are getting.

This guy's been sniffing fairy dust...A 1922 FN Browning at $1400.00 is a little more than optimistic. Jerry Burney

I am sure it was John Brownings personal .32 ACP ;)

It looks like he has some nice stuff.......But ya gota wonder where he gets his prices from, he's very proud....guess he really doesn't want to sell WoW.

At those prices, the guy is gonna die with the stuff.

Not even beleivable must be a miss print.

Maybe his wife told him to sell some things cause she's tired of having them around. So this way he can say that they are for sale and make her happy?:D

You know, if someone is going to offer high dollar items, he should make derned sure to provide proper pix...or maybe that's part of his strategy.

Unbelievable.... :O

The description of his M1906 Portugese Royal Navy Luger which he has a 'Buy it now' price of $15k:

"You are bidding on a 1906 Royal Portuguese Navy Luger. This is NOT to be confused with the 1906 Republic of Portugal Navy Luger. This gun has Anchor and Crown on Chamber NOT R. P. And these guns are VERY RARE!!! - This one is legitimate and in original condition with the the only wear being on the fron and rear gripstraps. This gun also comes with an original holster (possibly the only one in existence!!!) You may not ever see another!"

His guy has all his wires mixed up! If he could only see my near mint M1906 Portugese Royal Navy Luger, he would end up crying!!

Albert is correct! Also the 1940 dated Krieghoff has brown Ritzman grips on it. My understanding is that this year HK had BLACK plastic grips! It will be interesting to see if ANY of these pieces sell.

tracyp 08-02-2005 03:53 AM

I don't believe all 1940 HKs had black grips. I think they were in transistion. I don't think the Brown Ritzmann would be correct, but I do think that some may have Coarse Brown grips.

John D. what do you think??

Hi,
I've had a couple of 1940 HK's over the years and one had black grips and the other had brown. I believe Tracy is correct in that these were in transition and both are possible and correct.

Looks to me like he has some very nice Lugers and his prices are very close to what I see some others asking for theirs. Everything is high these days. People ask prime prices for prime pieces. I think the prices over the last two years have all gone completely out of reason, but people keep buying them. Guess it depends a lot if you own them, are looking for one, needing this variation, or just looking. --- Bill

Pete Ebbink 08-02-2005 03:06 PM

I agree with Tracy...a 1940 date seems pretty far down for Ritzmann grips to be correct...should be the brown or black coarse ones...
