Welcome to the forum. I do not really beleive that is the answer. There are lots of fakes out there, but lots and lots of mismatched and / or damaged / reblued lugers out there for sale for cheaper prices than fancy fakes. I have seen many guns for sale over the last year in that category and myself sold a mismatched artillery for around $850, my friend Dave sold another for around the same price. They are there, but you almost never see them in gun shops, pawn shops or even very many in gun shows.
This last weekend was the exception, a gentleman was selling his collection, and although not outstanding, he had numerous pieces from $950-$1500. Generally you find lugers by keeping your eyes open and talking on the forum. The on-line auctions have 20-30 lugers for sale at any one time, while the dealers have another 50-100 for sale, most nicer and more expensive, but you never know.
