A Comparison...

Bob in OH, I double checked my records for the last few years (2004, 2005 and 2006). So far nothing in 2006, but I have seen some nice Lugers, which I might have made a bid if I didn't already have one of that breed. The one I remember is a 41 byf with E/655 and E/135 WaA Marks (pretty rare) that sold for $1000 on GB.

In '04 and '05 I bought three collectable Lugers, all for $1000 or less. One 98% 41 byf for $950, a 97% 1939/42 for $1000 and a 95% minus 1936 for $950. Of course, shipping was in addition to the pistol price.

So they are out there, but ya just gotta be careful!! Ask the right questions and get a commitment for a return policy (for GB) if the pistol isn't as advertised. Without the latter, I wouldn't bid!!

Good Luck!
