1937 S/42

panpat56,

I have seen one import marked Luger with no dip blue and this was only a few weeks ago. It was at least 95% and looked great until I took it apart and the firing pin and holdopen were not matching. What a bummer because when I first looked at this pistol it was sold; then the big letdown with the import mark and the mis-matched parts.

Anyway, you need to check and verify that it is not an East German post war rework. many of these seem to have "matching" magazines. I don't know what is being asked for the pistol, but be careful and don't get burned in the deal. The TOP dollar for an original finish, import marked pistol should be in the MAX $600 range. Keep us posted and provide more info if possible.
