p.08 value?

Luger collectors value pistols that are in their original finish, with all matching original parts; as close as possible to the way they left the factory.

While not particularly rare, your S/42 coded Luger is collectable. It is uncommon to find them with their original numbered magazine, which is why it's that much more valuable.

1937 is, as I mentioned, a transition year. For that reason, there are several sub-variations of proof and acceptance markings and type of finish. This could make a specific sub-variation more valuable to a collector that wanted that one.

If you post your C-96 here, there are some experts on this firearm that frequent this forum.
