Restorations & Value

An original condition Luger is almost like cash in the bank. It will most likely appreciate but you will not lose money.

A reblued luger will not be more than a shooter. You may find someone who will pay you more than you paid for it but that is unlikely unless considerable time elapses. Most "restorations" involve consider expense in the refinishing and the seller needs to get as much out as he can to break even. Avoid them unless they are truly at a shooter price.
