I checked the bidder list Hugh and was suprised not to find either you or Ed Tinker there!

The photos look like they were done by kindergarteners with blunt crayons... Even with blurry photographs it looks like the gun has been really worked over with a buffer...

If I had more time I would write this guy a letter about the REAL collector value of this gun.

What a waste of a perfectly good Luger.

Question; Why would anyone bid more than $50 for this travesty? The thing's over $800 already! Could there be some shill bidding going on?

Hi
I looked at the weapon and it isn't a Presination Luger it seems to be a vet bring back that was plated in europe before coming home.
