rules of thumb for purchase

alvin · 01-15-2013, 08:50 AM

If not a dedicated Luger collector, but still need one Luger in the collection, I would think acquiring a VG common variation in $1000-$2000 range. The more expensive, the less you want to shoot it. But if you do shoot a few rounds from it occasionally, it shoots well. I would think 4" barrel, post 1908 army or commercial, matching, original finish 80% or above.
