BDS, I agree with Doubs, that is an exceptional Erfurt Luger. WOW, what a way to start your interest in Lugers!
I will let one of the true collectors comment on the current value, but I can assure you that you are sitting on at least a $1000 worth of Luger and with all the super accessories that you have, probably much much more.
Clean it carefully... Use "Breakfree" CLP and keep it lubricated and in a dry location. Do not store it in the holster. Try to not get any gun oil on the grips, remove them when you clean the gun and be very careful with the left grip because they have a tendency to break off a chip near the safety lever if they are improperly installed... they are beautiful condition.
For care of the holster, go to our homepage at
Lugerforum Homepage Link and take the general information link in the left frame and carefully read the article on leather preservation. Use no oils... especially NOT neatsfoot oil.
If you want to shoot a Luger, buy one of the shooter grade parts gun. the one you already own is a keeper not a shooter... Pass it on to you grandchildren if you can.
BTW, you did a great job on your first try with posting photos... I hope you don't mind but I took the liberty of cropping, enlarging and enhancing the color balance and contrast of your first two photos to give the forum a closer look... It is a MIGHTY FINE LUGER!
