Lund Yes being new also and having scowered the internet for months now I have found the same to be true, The Nazi or Reich era infantry Lugers do fetch more than the Imperials of same condition.

I think that anything to do with the Nazi era has a big attraction to collectors and drives up the price.

I just purchased a 1911a1 1945 Remington in 95%-97% condition from a private owner for about 1/3 the price of a WW1 era 1911 in the same condition so in that case older has higher collector value.
