Without the dubious markings, it would be an interesting collectible set with the telltale signs of use and perhaps some important history. The fighting SS received arms from regular army sources and there was no known effort to mark the old pistols pulled from storage and sent to SS units. The police, who were SS-managed during WW2, used police-type arms so if you want a likely SS luger, you might buy a 1941 police inspected luger in a shoulder holster.

Because of the SS runes, this gun has minimal value in the $500 area provided it is in good working order.

Too bad, a 1910 date is an interesting luger.
