Newbie asking for help

Hello Folks , I am looking for some pricing info : I am not new to milsurps , but new to the bewildering array of lugers . A shop where I live has a DWM mil proofed pistol dated 1918 . It is also stamped miltech, Import ? Rebuild ? . One part has is mismatched and has the correct number electro penciled in . Overall condition is NRA good . What would something like this gun be worth ? If I by anything it is a shooter : could you folks give me a better idea what a 350 shooter would be ? I have yet to see one under 350 . Thanks Mark

Sorry about that last sentence meant to say yet to see any luger under 500 .

mark, welcome to the forum!

Once you are approved, I will move this thread to the New Collector area.

You don't see Lugers for less than $500 and actually, seldom see them for less than $600 anymore.

Miltech I beleive was an importer of arms, not completly sure, but any parts luger will cost the above prices.

Having been electrostenciled and being a recent import, I would guess it is a Russian import, myabe East German, this is not uncommon to see.
