Need help with a 41 Black Widow
 

I've come across a 1941 P08 which appears to be a Black Widow 41 according to all the markings, only the serial number is only 3 digits? Is that correct?

Not sure what you mean by Black Widow markings. Black Widow is a meaninless designation dreamed up by a US dealer for Lugers with Black grips. The markings are the same.Yes a 3 digit serial number can be correct. Can you give us some pictures? Welcome to the Forum. Bill

Thanks Very much for help...

These are not great pictures?

As Wlyon states above...Your pistol with a 3 digit serial number is authentic and correct.

How do I determine ball park value and is this an early Luger, and the only reason I mentioned Black Widow is the book I got on Luger markings classifies this as either early/late BW 41?

Thanks

We cannot provide any type of value estimate without a good series of clear focus photographs of the complete gun from all angles... outdoors on a clear overcast day should be a good start for good lighting. All markings should be clearly shown.
