Both Matching Mags

Just how much does having both matching mags and origional holster add to the value of a standard Nazi era Military Luger. Is it as rare as it seems from just reading the posts...Thanks for the newbie question,,,,,,,,Jimmy

Hi Jimmy,

Welcome to the forum. Original holster and both "verifiable" matching mags will add several hundreds of dollars to a Luger. Considered a matching "Rig" by collectors. It could add $1000 to $2000 + to the right Luger, depending on it's condition and rarity.

Be wary of a Luger with both matching mags. It takes a trained eye and experience to spot boosted magazines. And since the value is enhanced considerably by matched mags. The boosters are very active in the endeavor to produce them. Unless you know the provinence of a piece first hand, you can get burnt very easily.
