Thank you for the valuation. I now have to take the maximums you quoted and multiply by 6.7 to get to a value in our currency. My insurers are going to love me as I don't have any intention of selling.
Can anyone confirm or shoot down something I heard that one is able to write to the German archives should one want a history on the weapon ? If this is so can anyone point me into the right direction to start the enquiries ?
Reading through all the different posts on your forum I feel honoured to own such a weapon. It appears to generate a lot of enthusiasm. I have fired the pistol but with our standard 9 mm ammo the expended cartridge fails to clear the breech and jams with the live round half way into the chamber and the expended cartridge on the way out.
Another question I have is, in it's condition and with the apparent originality should I be using it as a shooter or should I rather find another Luger to use as a shooter.
If I may say I believe this pistol has me hooked and I hope to be around on this forum regularly in the future - especially considering I'm what you would class a newbie.
