Finnish Contract Luger

Bad news. Upon closer inspection, it appears that the gun had been bead blasted. The Mauser banner on the toggle is mearly a shadow and the SA is nowhere to be found. In fact, the serial number on the frame is gone. A fact I pointed out to the shop owner, who was unaware of this. All the other s/n's matched up fine. My dad even brought his camera with a good macro lense to get some good closeups, but we did not bother. I had originally offered him 3 for it and was told someone else offered 4. I suggested that he call the owner of the gun to take the 4. He seems dead set on getting 650. Oh well, maybe I'll have better luck next time. I just hope nobody gets stuck with it at that price.
