Another thing to consider, does your Luger have a 4 digit serial number with a suffix letter or a 5 digit serial number? Recent books have started to reclassify Lugers from 1923 commercial to 1920 commercial (those with 5 digit serial numbers) and the former 1920 commercial to the designation of "alphabet Lugers" (Those with 4 digits and a suffix letter), this affects value as well. I recently got a hold of a 1920 commercial (5 digit) in .30 Luger which is all matching with 1 original magazine and a WWII Nazi Holster (which doesn't match my particular model Luger in any historical sense) for $1500 as a reference.
