Without the 3 grooves I'd guestimate it at roughly $1500. With the grooves it becomes difficult to price as it comes down to the buyer, and do they see them as "kill marks" or simply damage . Worst case scenario is $1000 as a shooter.
But let's see what the more experienced collectors have to say, as I've not dealt with these issues before.

Obviously, the collector value has been impacted.

For a fellow of modest means such as myself, this is the sort of luger that I find very attractive. Nice condition, but not "top shelf", so it would be likely be affordable...for someone like myself.
