Persian Luger
There is an interesting Persian Luger for sale on gunbroker that I thought that someone might be interested. Give me your thoughts and comments on the pistol.
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...?Item=34522466 As usual, I have no connection with these folks. Just thought it is an interesting variation. Does anyone have a Persian Luger that they might share information/pictures with us? Sid.

Here is a very special Presentation Persian Luger that is now in the collection of Bob Adams...
http://www.adamsguns.com/luger.htm This Luger was first made public on the Lugerforum by the previous owner (George) several years ago, and he enlisted our help in evaluating it's value. As I recall, he was either a relative or friend of a relative of General Evans to whom this Luger was presented by the Shah of Iran. I think I recall this gun being sold in excess of $6000.00 for it's historical signifigance...

The one rig that Simpsons have for sale seems to be a better investment...Simpson's asking is $ 7500 for the entire rig with 2 magazines and holster, cleanig rod, and ammo...while Tom/Ralph at PIA are asking $ 6500 for a much more worn pistol...and only a pistol...
I think the unique Simpsons holster could sell for $800 or higher...just by itself... http://www.simpsonltd.com/product_in...oducts_id=2352 |

The one shown in the pic sold for 3,480 Euros; approx. U.S. $ 4,200 just recently.
The dealer claims to have 2 more complete rigs under consignment, but they are not yet up for sale. http://www.livepages.de/sh/piaf/phot...02/images/329- |
