DWM Luger from Turkey

evrenay · 07-07-2011, 12:30 AM

Dear Jerry,

I didn't see the original magazine. He thought the pistol doesn't fire properly with the original so he bought a VoPo magazine from the US.
I asked for the original to take photos but it was at his home which was close to his business, however we were running out of time so I couldn't wait for him to bring the original magazine.

Nevertheless, I know that it is chrome plated with wooden bottom and on the bottom it has the lettering "9 mm". At least the owner told me so.

Dear Vern,

in order to give some information to the owner of this pistol, what would you estimate it's price in international market. Just because we are curious about it.
As we can not export guns from Turkey (if there is a way to export, I don't know it) this country has it's own market price.

A "Cal 9MM" marked magazine will add considerably to the value of the gun. even in bad condition it is worth quite a lot of money, do not discard it as not usable.

I have know way of knowing market values in Turkey for collectable Lugers.

I guess you could do some comparisons using like guns in Turkey and other countries and then ratio the numbers.
Other members may be better able to help you on questions of value and exporting.
