Think of it this way. I've been collecting for 40 years and if I see a luger with import marks at a gun show, I won't allow it in the house. They have no collector value to me. Actually the same is true if it is mismatched, refinished, or does not have at least one matching mag. I'm that picky.

But.....................if my mom bought it for my dad, it becomes a family piece, and priceless. It gets put away for the family. That applies to every family gun, no matter what the fair market value is.
