Grandad's Luger

Every 10,000 guns repeated the same serial number, albeit with a different letter after the first 10k, which had none.
With a bit of luck, over time,gramps just happened to come across the same serial number, but with a different letter code, so he included this magazine with the rig, (which is what I would have done), but it is not the magazine that was issued with the rig, which is a shame.
Still, a G date with one correct magazine is a prize and worth a collector's interest.

For an appraisal, this list is as honest as it gets. If you want a second opinion, check out Simpson's Luger site and look for a similar gun. Since they try to get full current retail, plus, subtract about 30% rom their asking prices to get a realistic current retail for your gun.
