Luger serial 600 series

Your only photo is a bit confusing. Your picture shows a gun that was possibly made before mid 1913, (no stock lug), but it apparently has a holdopen device that was not retrofitted, (no obvious pin and proof stamp on the side of the receiver). There are no proofs on the right side of the receiver, which may or may not be right, depending on the balance of the gun.

It was most certainly made after 1906

The finish and grips appear to be original, but much more needs to be known before we can declare $1,500 a good price.

To start, please photograpgh ALL markings and visible numbers on the outside of the gun as close up as you can and add a few more overall photos.

Also, get a good photo of the frames backstrap, where the stock lug should be so that we can see if it was growned off or not.
