Artillery Luger Trigger Problem

Ron Wood · 07-16-2008, 07:37 PM

Bill and I are pretty much of the same opinion. I will not value a nice Luger up or down very much, if at all, for a matched or unmatched firing pin, grips or magazine. It is nice to have those things matching, but I am looking at the overall condition and originality of the gun. (I am also not real hard-over on the bore condtion...dark is OK, heavily pitted is not)

So if I ever get around to selling some of my stuff, and someone happens to find one that doesn't have a matching firing pin (I don't even know if I have one) and tries to haggle my price down a ridiculous amount, I will politely tell them to be careful not to let the door hit them on the backside on their way out.
