Dear Vern,

I wasn't asking for a price value in Turkey, I was definitely asking for a price in International (means Europa and the US) markets. Ron gave me the answer I needed.

I don't think that the owner is really interested in exporting his gun. I am/were particularly interested in exporting because I own an original matching numbers (slide and frame) 1944 made Colt 1911 .38 Super with G.H.D. inspector stamp and "Ordnance Wheel" on the frame. This is one of 400 made for the O.S.S. and left by them in Istanbul.

Anyway, I also own a (wooden bottom, nickel) magazine with 9mm inscription at the bottom and it functions well with my own 1915 Artillery Luger. Sometime, I will post photos of my little Luger-magazine collection along with my Artillery.

I have some bad news; I can not find the DWM cartridge which I became as a gift. On the same day we met with the owner of this Luger, we went to a shooting competition and I had other 9x19 cartridges in my pocket. I hope it comes out from somewhere, otherwise I would be really embarrassing for me to have shot a 100 years old bullet in a competition, which I couldn't even win!
