I just bought my first luger today. Will pick it up hopefully next week (if papers come in). Well, I bought it before i did some good research on it. I think i payed too much for it. $800 I'm hoping it's better than I think it is. I did a visual inspection of it and it seem like its in good shape. Some wear around the barrel, front sight and sides. Every number I could find matches. 9mm. It has 1920 (i think) on the top and DWM. Did'nt notice any proofs or markings. It also came with 3 non matching mags, holster and instruction manual in english and a second set of grips. Will find out more when I get it.

Also a question. I'v read that if the gun is reblued the value goes down. does this apply to refinishing too? I read that alot of people on this forum had their luger refinished. Thanks!!!
