Jorge, Neither of these lugers are Mauser made. The 4 inch barrel luger has an unrelieved sear bar, making it probably a DWM WW1 military luger. The other is a 1906 type DWM 7.65mm commercial luger. Both appear to be reblued. The safety levers are blued and not strawed. Both look like there are imperfections (rust?) on the barrel and receiver. It's kind of a shame that both of these fine lugers have been degraded. Price is a major factor here. My guess is that the WW1 luger should sell for about $1000 USD and the 1906 commercial $1200 USD. If they can be had at these prices, then they might be worth restoring as shooters if you have the skill and knowledge to do it. Good luck!
