Would you buy this 1917 Luger?

Hi Geo, I like the gun and I think it's cheap at $1,400.00, particularly since it has a matching number magazine. None of the signs that indicate a re-blue are present, including the L shaped lever inside the side-plate, which is properly "in the white". Imperial era side-plates frequently differ slightly in color from the rest of the gun, I believe it's due to the heat treatment that this part received.
Regards, Norm
