So my BIL and I went to the gun show today and there were 4 Lugers. Two WW1, for $2000 and $2200, way overpriced.
Then I saw a 30 cal for $1200 which had a less than perfect finish.
And we saw and bought this BYF 41 with all matching numbers. They were asking $900 and we got them down to $850
The finish looks good except it looks like some spots were cold blue touched up. Not covering corrosion, maybe just thin finish areas.
But it looks like a very nice shooter with a great bore.
My BIL is happy. What do you guys think?
Crappy cell phone pics.
No number on the mag but it does look period to me.
