Default "G" Date S/42 Pistol

I have a Luger rig that I've thought about selling and wondered if somebody could care to give me a real world value range. It's an early "G" date with W|154 and S|92 proofs so an early 1935 mfg pistol. Mechanically in excellent condition with excellent bore. All original with matching numbers and original finish, even still has strawing on small parts. But it does have finish wear with about 60% remaining. So overall a nice all original unmessed with piece but not one of those "safe queens" that command the really big bucks. I also have a 1936 holster with dwe (droop wing eagle) and marked "waA 387" in excellent condition and dwe/63 proofed loading tool. Also includes two correct magazines. Nickle bodies and aluminum bases and "dwe/63" proofs. So maybe a few months late for my pistol but still correct for a "G" date pistol. No...not matching numbers on the magazines, I'm afraid.

It's not for sale right now but it's a case of I may have to later and just want to be in a position to get a fair price for it. Maybe not as nice as many that guys on this forum own. But a decent example of a hard to find pistol made by Mauser when quality still ruled with German firearms.
