Hello,

Is the definition of a complete rig as follows:

Pistol (All matching-everything)
Two original matching magazines.
Original take down tool?
Holster dated same as pistol or one year before or one year later.

I have seen the word "rig" slung around lately and I think different people have diferent definitions.

My greatest luger finds have come from "complete rigs" purchased directly from the veteran. I am always anxious to pay a premium for a complete rig from such a source. We have to keep in mind that even from this source things could have been switched around. Many rigs today have surely been put together to try to increse a pistols value or rig value. Such as the "Black Widow" lugers. Everybody has to have one and of course you can get more money for them. It does seem our hobby is centered around what the value of our things are and not so much the historical significance. I seem to cherish my lugers as an engineering marvel and the place they represent in history as most came to America from an honored veteran.

I have a lot more to say but will quit here for the time being.

Beste Wishes,
