If I were buying I'd try to get it for $1000; selling maybe $1400. Probably not what you wanted to hear. Maybe others value it higher. We'll see.

Hi Larry, Your gun was made in early 1929 using an illegal 9mm barrel made during WWI. The magazines were made in1941/42. This Luger has had an interesting history, (I can hear you saying "yeah, but you can't eat history!), and if I owned it I would not shoot it. Regards, Norm

Norm - Please explain why this particular 9mm barrel was made illegally...Us new guys don't know why, and we're too embarrassed to ask...
