It all depends.

I have found a P38 collector who will offer more than double what a pistol of mine is worth, merely because it has not one, but *both* of the original capture paper forms accompanying it. It seems the GI was in a military hospital and never turned in the duplicate form, keeping it and the copy he was supposed to have both with the pistol. This particular collector has a fondness for guns with capture papers, and is willing to pay a high premium for them.

If I ever need to raise a bit of cash in a hurry, I suppose I may sell it to him, as it is a common ac code pistol, (in great shape, but still...) but for the moment it will remain with me.
