Help with byf 42

If it is everything you say, it could be worth that much easily. Without seeing it, the people here will be severly disadvantaged at making a judgement call. If you could get some pictures of everything, especially a close up of a few places on the Luger so that a more accurate evaluation could be made. It would help greatly, especially in being able to tell if the bluing is orginal or not. One thing to consider, they aren't getting any cheaper as time passes. I bought my byf 42 in 1979, and many thought I was crazy to pay $475 for any handgun, then. I'm happy I splurged and bought it. Imagine the value of that setup, you are looking at, in 25 years!!!
