Went to a small Houston gun show today. Only saw 6 Lugers, but left with 3 of them! Two were shiny dip reblued for $1500 each, didn't even pick them up. One was a heavily buffed and nickle plated piece of junk. The three I brought home were a 1917 DWM artillery, a G date S/42, and a 1923 Commercial in 30L. They are not "mint" guns, but all have matching SN's, and the prices were right!
