Dwm Arty

Major Horst · 01-21-2006, 08:07 PM

Recently,, I looked at a DWM Arty , 1915, Which seemed all matching. I did not remove the grips, and the magazines were not correct. The finish was about 95%, and the bore was dirty, but looked like it would clean up. The seller wanted $2000.00 What I need to know is is that an ok price or high, low or what?

Everything depends on condition and originality.

I wouldn't get into luger artillery buying without first buying several books and studying them, as it can be very expensive for learning. Plus this forum can help a lot by reading and comparing against what you see on the street.

BTW; you are approved for this forum, I will move this to the new collectors part of this forum. Meanwhile, welcome to the forum,

Horst,

If, as Ed stated, it is all correct and matching. The price is in the current range for a 1915 Artillery. Not a steal, but not bad and Artillery prices are rapidly going up.
