Well, it's obvious that Tony's wife interrupted him while posting, and although she approves of him getting rid of some of his 'junk', she's already spending the money...

So let's help her out by giving an estimate...

Hmmm, we don't know where the '1917' came from, can we guess that this non-Erfurt has a 1917 chamber date??? Erfurt toggle, artillery barrel (maybe an original?), unknown frame, buggered holster...Barrel is in much better shape than the rest of the gun/parts...Most likely a repro...Grips look awfully good...

It's probably worth more in parts than as a shooter (which is the best it can be), but I'd peg it at $700 - $800, as an ersatz shooter...Maybe more if honestly described on GB...(Gun only)...

The all-matching numbers is suspect, I'd think...

Stock-holster I couldn't put even an estimate on (not my field of interest)...

It would be interesting to see barrel bottom + frame serial...and chamber hood...

Other estimates???
