bulgarian luger 1900 7.65 mint - estimate please
 

Hi, my brother in Greece acquired a Bulgarian Luger 1900 , with a 6-digit serial# (20xxx) with all numbers matching (even the handles) w/original 7.65 barrel in mint condition. Not reworked.

He is interested in selling.

I would greatly appreciated it if any of you Luger experts could take a shot at estimating its value (I will post pictures as soon as I have them).

Also, is anybody in this board in Europe?

Thank you in advance,
YL

Most of the original configuration 7.65x120mm long frame lugers that I've seen in the USA were excellent restorations done for the last 30 years or so by Mike Krause. Almost all long frame 7.65mm Bulgarians that were still in their hand during WW2 were faced off and short reciever type 9x100mm barrels were installed. To be sure that one of these was possibly correct the barrel length should definately be 120mm, not the short received type of 118mm. TH
