Bill,
Some ``high end`` collectible Lugers are bringing scary figures price wise !! But like you did we can sometimes stumble on a good find....
A few years back I bought this 1900 AE as a shooter that had been incorrectly reblued and wasnt so great. But it had no pitting, buffing and was all matching. So it was a perfect candidate for a restoration. With the help of a fellow Gunsmith we came up with the following result....It was sold as a restored piece with a realistic price to a collector looking for such....
