Just found your site today and have had a lot of fun reading the posts thus far. I always wanted a Luger and managed to pick one up last year. Not a pristine example, but at least within my price range. Could someone please give me an idea of its value...

- 1918 DWM
- 1920 Double date
- Police Unit stamps on frame were XXX'd out and a second set of numbers were stamped.
- 100% matching except mag
- Mag is aluminum bottom, waffenamt stamped
- Works flawlessly with any ammo I feed it
- Light to medium pitting on sides. Was obviously reblued at some point. Now very light holster wear.
- Walnut Grips are warn a little smooth, but are good condition and appear original
- No import stamps.

PS - I paid $365 from a small dealer with a shop in his basement that was going out of business.

Thanks in advance for any replies.
