If it's all matching, and in about 90% original finish, with a mis-match period correct magazine, it should be worth $1300-1500 to a collector.

Black bakelite grips would be appropriate for this period. Post photos of the inside of the grips to confirm that they are period and correct.

If you want an insurance value, look at some of the firearms being sold by dealers like simpson's ltd and others that post online.
