Thanks Postie!

I had an Interarms P-1 in the past. Everything is OK except it's not all steel. Since $672 is on the high end, I will wait the next one.

That was my reason for not buying a P-1 at the local Gander Mountain...Aluminum frame...

My comment on price is my own personal opinion, from checking GB for a shooter...Since I don't care about matching or even good bore...but I do like no [exterior] pitting...or at least minimum...

That said, it looks to me like P-38's are going for about 1/2 to 3/4 the price of a comparable Luger...At this time...

IMO, it is a good time to buy P-38...

18 bids on that one...$25 S&H...plus whatever your local FFL receiver charges...(unless you are nearby/same state)...

GB pics always exaggerate scratches, pits, wear...

It's not a *bad* price (IMHO)...Just not a great price...but auction still hasn't ended...might be some collector want it and bid big...
