1938 P.08 (Mauser)

Just acquired a 1938 P.08 with Mauser logo and proof marks. 90-95% original bluing. Very good condition. Who would venture a guess as to its worth? original holster with two clips.

It could be worth a couple hundred to several thousand depending on all the markings of each piece.

Are the magazines identical in contruction and serial number matched to the pistol?

What are the holster markings? and has it ever been repaired or refinished? is there a takedown tool in the holster?

Are you sure that the pistol has never been refinished?

Check out the technical information link on the left and when you have all the data required on the the identification sheet(s), then post the info here so you can get a real good estimate of your Luger's value.

Posting a photo or two if you have that capability would also be very helpful.
