Pricing question

bigborefan · 01-20-2012, 05:50 PM

My brother just bought a WW2 luger from RGuns a short time ago. He paid $100 extra for matching numbers and $50 for select pick. What he received was a 1936 S/42 with about 30% bluing, all parts matched but hold open latch (not all matching) and the side plate had a sizeable ding in it. They refunded his $100 when confronted on the mismatch. On the plus, the bore was very good with no corrosion and very little wear, tight action with very little wear on inner parts and a very nice FXO unnumbered magazine. Also it wasn't X'd as most Russian Lugers are.

There's an Rguns Luger video on YouTube under ''DWM Luger P.08. It looks decent.

Thanks, I had heard of the RGuns Lugers but wasn't sure of the quality I might expect from ex-Russian guns (which it sounds like many of these are). It's a bonus that they do have WWI pistols, though. I might give them a try at some point (I'm still shopping around and would probably like to buy from someone here first).
