Rich,

The holster is in pretty rough condition. I would guess in the $150 range , give or take. The Luger looks to be pretty nice, if it isn't refinished. Hard to tell from the photos, but it looks almost too good. Roughly $1500-$1700 if it has original finish. Around $800-$900, if it's refinished, in todays slow market.

I've seen Lugers that would have sold for $2000+ two years ago, selling for $1400-$1500 now. The current economy has brought prices down.

Hi Rich, Ron is right the holster is in sad shape. The good news is that the gun looks great. If that magazine with the aluminum base has a matching number it could be worth closer to $2,500. Regards, Norm

Well... I guess I struck out all the way around heh. It IS refinished, by Thor, in Umm...'05 I think. And the mag does not match #'s. I kinda figgered the holster was at the low end. OK... now I have enough info to make a post in the FS section. Assuming it's not gone this weekend- local guy looking at it today.

Thank you all- I appreciate it alot!
