I am often amused when I hear someone speak of a refinished or non-matching luger, P.38, import marked M1 Carbine, etc. as having no collector value...if this were true, you could by them for $100-$125 as many milsurp 9mm pistols can be had. In my mind, any time you have to pay more for a relic gun than what the going rate for a used modern gun of comparable function, the gun has some collector value.
