Need Help

[Yates1876]

I know nothing about guns or selling a gun. I was given a gun several years ago that I now know is a 1941 Luger handgun. My wife and I just had our second baby and she has not been allowed to work for six weeks...so I am trying to sell the gun quickly to make money to buy Christmas presents for our families. I have done a little research online...just enough to find my identical gun on websites going for anywhere from $1000 to $4700 (with a holster which I do not have).

I found this forum through some further searching...so I thought this would be a good place to turn for help. I need to know how to sell it...hopefully within a few weeks...and get as much value out of it that it has to offer. If someone on here wanted to sell it for me, I would even be glad to possibly work out some sort of arangement.

I am in Louisville Ky...please feel free to answer on this thread or if there is some sort of Private Message on this forum feel free to PM me (I litereally just found this thread and joined a minute ago, but if it functions like other forums I assume there is a messaging option).

Thanks to all for your input and help with my desparate situation.
