Russian Luger

[Tony S.]

I am new in this forum. I started collecting Lugers about a year ago. I am looking into purchasing a Russian Luger. All I know about Russian Luger I got from books. This one has all matching numbers but does not have the proof mark under the barrel (shield with diagonal line across). It does have the right number. The gun was probably re-finished professionaly while ago. Everything else is as described in all reference books. Does anybody out there has a good idea about value of gun? Did all barrels are supose to have the proof mark? I thought I read some where that all Russian Lugers did not have the proof mark, but I am not certain so I ask.
