DWM Commercial Questions

u suffix 29DWMs were never made originally in 9mm. The "halos" on the barrel serial numbers of this pistol have been artificially reproduced.

The only Alphabet commercial/29DWM worth more than $1k would be one in perfectly mint condition (or a police pistol). Alphabet Commercials in good original condition may be worth as much as $600-$800, although the ask price is usually much more.

This Luger, refinished and rebarreled to 9mm, is worth less than $500. If you are looking strictly for a 9mm Luger to shoot and can get it cheap, it might be worthwhile. Otherwise I suggest you avoid it like the plague and save your money for a good one.
