Mitchell's Mauser Lugers

John Sabato · 12-22-2008, 05:36 PM

Welcome to the Lugerforum. These guns are CREATED for the new collector who doesn't know anything about collecting, so they don't know they are overpaying to own a "Luger"....They are all shooter class guns, not collectibles. They have all been refinished. Sometimes they add markings and decorations that further detract from their authenticity... only if you have money to burn, should you purchase one of these rehab Lugers...

They do fit them into nice presentation cases, and make them LOOK like they are collectibles, but I wouldn't own one because the refinish brings their value DOWN, not up.
