I personally know of a rare luger that Gale did for a collector, I want to say the collector paid $8 or $9,000 for the restore ALONE and it was a year or more to get done.

When you start needing welding, filing, then getting everything to look good (so I have been told) the cost goes up dramatically....

If this was a 1904, then I would say yes and I like the rarity of the gun, stock and mag - but ALL needs to be restored IMHO
