Hi All,
I have just discovered this forum and I am very impressed with the knowledge here, as well as the very helpful atmosphere. I live in the Netherlands, on the German border, and have just acquired a P08 DWM. All matching parts, including 1 matched magazine and one spare. The matching mag has the original ebony base. The base of the spare looks like another material - perhaps one of you experts can tell from the enclosed photos? The marked mag on the right is the spare- no other numbers on it. The other on the left is the matched mag.
Could some of you estimate the collector value? I would like to use the gun as a shooter, but I can understand the 2 big options out there for special firearms 1- keeping as a safe queen, and 2. taking it out and shooting it, but taking very good care of it. I would really appreciate your feedback here.
Thanks in advance for your responses! I couldn't pass this up... it's beautiful really... and I've always wanted to shoot one of these...
