Luger vrs Inflation~

I bought a S&W K22 back in 1956 for 67.xx. put maybe 2 boxes of LR through it that year and have now put it up for sale with LGD for $1000.00 (GD's estimate) with box and original brochure. All guns appreciate if kept in good shape. Bought a Luger same year for $30.00 +5.00 for extra select. Had Luger reblued to make it look like new gun in 1958. Gave Luger to Nephew and he sold it a couple of years ago. Found out last year that it was all matching even magazine from nephew after he sold it for $800.00 to local luger collector. I think gun should have brought more then 1000.00 being all matching even with re-bluing. easy come - easy go!
