Jay,

It's hard to judge the finish of this Luger from your photos because of the focus and flash problems.

If you can re-shoot them, try taking them outdoors, in indirect (shaded) light and without using the flash. A tripod and self timer will stabilize the camera, and using the closeup setting will let it focus more effectively.

If this Luger has been refinished, it would be worth $1000 at best, plus the holster ($250) and the magazine. If it's original finish as it left the factory, it's worth more.
