I've been thinking of selling my grandfathers Luger. Would like to get something a bit more modern that I would be comfortable shooting.
All the numbers I can see match - and the only thing I know is missing is the small 'key' used to disassemble the gun.
I'm curious where the best place to sell a gun is? And how much I could reasonably expect to get for this one.
I know it's not in the greatest condition but I took it to a local gun shop and they quoted me around $600 which seemed a bit low to me.
I understand a gun shop can't give me full value because they need to turn around and make some $$. What legalities are involved with selling a gun to an individual? Or does that vary state by state?
And is there anything I can do maintenance wise that would help with the value? I watch Antiques Roadshow and they say never restore finishes etc
Any advice would be appreciated!
