Ray,

You sure have a winner with this rig in 97% condition. Normally, a "KU" Luger with mismatched magazine in 95-96% condition will sell for $1800 retail. Since you have the full Rig, I would put a retail price in the $2500-3000 area. The dealer that offered you $2500 for the rig seemed to be offering you a decent price. Normally, a dealer will set the retail price he will ask, then buy at approx 30% less. The difficult part is there are no hard and fast rules, and if a dealer buys it for resale, he must make a profit, so he will not buy it from you for the retail price.

If you are contemplating selling the rig, post it on this Forum in the Classified Section, and also post it on one of the firearm auction sites.

I sure would like to have it in my collection, but that is just wishing at thi time! Good Luck.

Marvin
