I traded one of my Garands last night for a DWM luger that the guy was asking 1400 for. I dont think it was worth that but I had about 800 In the garand. I got the Luger, the "original" magazine (thats what he said at least) and one other with a black bottom. Also a holster with a broken strap. There is some wear, but only where it came in contact with the holster and the grips arent sharp but after 96 years, I wouldn't expect them to be. Its in 30 Cal. I also got 240$ with the pistol.
So was it a good deal, and the big question, should I just go ahead and restore it and make it slightly more beautiful and sharp.
(Germany stamped on left) All # match.
The bore is lightly pitted which is expected due to the mercuric primers.
Will try to post detailed pictures later.

Thanks guys
