Default overpriced Lugar?

Hello All,
I was looking on Gunbroker and found this item.....

http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...?Item=51183621

It MUST BE one of them very rare one's, and it is so old....But the price?



Ps I really do not think it is a 1906 gun
And yes I know how to spell Luger but that is how it is listed

Happy Hunting

Wow! It's one of the rare pre-dated 1917 / 1906 "Comercial Lugars".

I believe the only other one known to eksist is in the NAR museem. Up thar in Ikypooky Massatoochits. Er sum durn place like at.

Tac,
I can't believe that you wouldn't be able to tell black plastic from Nauga Horn.

Tac,

Howard,

I wouldn't dream of depriving you of such a rare item. Are you two planning on a time share?

Shouldn't all of us send the seller a message about being overpriced?

Just a thought.

Maybe "Haksaw" (the seller) has a warped sense of humor and he is having a bit of fun. Unfortunately, I think he may be serious and doesn't have a clue what he doing.

Probably just got his dots and commas wrong

Wish those responsible for tax returns would make the same mistake...often...

I looked at the writeup again and just figured out why it's so valuable.....it's a LugAr, not a LugEr.

LOL

Gerben,
Looks like you were right, he got his dots, commas and zeros under control and the price is back down near where it should be. Still mis-identified though. I wonder why he thinks a military Luger with a 1917 date on it is a 1906 Commercial?
