Rare 1939!

[Ron Wood]

In all fairness, the seller did not claim it to be "original" condition, just good to very good and in firing condition. This is one time I am almost willing to accept lack of knowledge on the part of the seller. After collecting for over 45 years, I sometimes forget that not everyone is totally familiar with Lugers. Heck, I even encounter individuals calling a 1911 .45 a "luger".
On the other hand, it would seem that if you have something to sell, you do have a responsibility to do a little research. When asking a lot of money (and to me $995 is a lot), representation should be as accurate as possible.
