What makes a bring back so valuable is often who brought it and why.

Not really. Just an FXO mag with an extra unidentifiable mag, a holster with no tool and the gun itself

And, many Lugers are offered with stories but unless impecably documented such tales should be considered sales talk.

This is true

Hey man, a new collector can dream right?

I do need to remember this.
