need lots more pictures before I would give value, faked magazines are common; and that is what drives the value. Plus it must be all matching; firing pin, grips, hold open etc. If not, then value drops.

Not trying to sound negative, but values from a brief description and one photo is a guessing game.

I personally have had trouble "getting" anything over $2500 for any luger from WW1 era, even with 2 matching magazines.
