Saw a 1938 dated Luger at a gunshow today. The finish is 98%, slightly thinning on the bbl. All the numbers match with the exception of the sideplate and link pin which match each other. It has two matching magazines that number to the gun (one with a plus under the number) It has a holster that has been cut so that is worthless but also has capture papers and transport papers. The bore was pristine. It was negotiated down to 1250.00 from 1559. With the condition and the matching mags BUT with the two mismatched pieces is that close to the value? I am not a Luger guy, a US martial arms type, but dearly love the Luger pistols.
TIA.
