This one rides the line between high end shooter and low end collectible, and the distinction in this area is quite subjective. BTW, all mine are "collectible shooters"! All else being correct and in good condition can go a long way in making it desirable, but this single issue will definitely repel the hardcore experienced collector, except for its appeal as a place-holder in a collection. As Rich points out, some local markets--and many individuals--do not require as much of a Luger in order for it to sell.
