Estimate of Value, DWM Luger?

[Lugerdoc]

Your "r" suffix alpha commerical is most likely a 7.65mm, and due to the ammo cost, these are more difficult to sell than the standard 9mmP. If a standard wood pencil will not fit into the bore, it's not a 9mm. Even with the aftermarked mag (or just the bottom) and if refinished, it should be worth at lease $600. TH

I should have mentioned this earlier, but your statement is correct. I have fired one small box of ammo (which was admittedly pretty tough to find) with this piece. It was a 7.65mm caliber, and not 9mm. Thanks again for the help!
