Another "what's it worth" question...

[Edward Tinker]

I am unsure what you mean by numbers on the rear of the breachblock?

And the values above, I think for a 30 luger, they are too high, as it will cost more to shoot it, etc.

A "wrong" number (anywhere) is odd and not a good sign.

The "lines" on the side plate are not right, should be smooth like the rest of the pistol; maybe a number was removed?

I found the last digit of the serial stamped inside, but you made me look again and the last two digits are actually stamped on the bottom edge. The side plate doesn't really look sanded, it's more like heavy high spot wear. It's not as nice as the rest of the pistol, for sure.

If you look at it from the rear, there's a two digit number (not matching) right next to the firing pin retainer. Like Don said, finding odd numbers is not a good sign and the rear toggle has a "7" stamped underneath. Did they ever use any extra numbers like batch numbers, assembly numbers, date codes etc? This is pretty common on other guns, but I don't know if DWM ever did it?
