Marc, David & Jerry:

Thanks for your thoughts on the value. I really appreciate the input.

My first thought was "all-matching 1938 Mauser with period holster, extra mag and loading tool, it must be worth close to $2,000!"

But nearly everything about it is a bit worn or rough -- the finish, the bore, the grips. And then there is the name on the holster, which like gunbugs, I think is kind of cool, but it's not helping the collectability factor either. (Jerry -- I removed the wire. Thanks for the advice.)

I think it will be a fun shooter. I want to offer my friend a fair price, but I don't want to overpay either. This helps a lot.
