Hi Rob,

If the grips and magazine are authentic (period correct) they are almost worth what you paid for the entire pistol.

Post some pictures of the magazine showing all markings. Also, if you are very careful (see removal advice on this site) remove and photograph the back of the grips. Be particularly careful with the upper left grip near the safety lever. They are easy to break there.

Don't use a flash in your photos. Get a tripod. Use the closeup setting on your camera, and take the pictures outdoors in indirect (shaded) light.

I think you have a very nice Luger at a very good price.

Marc
