Went to a local auction house to check out two Lugers they had advertised. One was a 1900 AE that was in overall 65-70% but was mismatched. The barrel and toggle were different numbers than the frame. I ran it up to $625 and was thinking I was crazy to go that high! I did want a 1900 shooter though. Anyway the real gem was the 1917 DWM Artillery in 95%+ all matching with a matching stock, but non matching mag. Unfortunately the holster was junk, but I think that the straps might be salvageable as well as some other parts. I paid $1600, which I think is a good price for this partial rig. The holster appears to be pig skin (pebbled finish). Thatâ??s all for now.
