Rare 1938 Nazi Luger!

One redeeming item might be the grips... If they are not reproduction grips (and they might be, can't tell from this photo), they would be 1941 "Black Widow" grips... and at the price those are now bringing on eBay... they would be worth nearly a third of the asking price for the Luger... so if they are "real"... that puts the price of this Luger back down to around the $600 shooter class mark mentioned previously... you could hawk the grips and replace them with the inexpensive East German variety... or cheap wooden reproduction grips...
