Luger number help

Hi Rick,

From what I've seen lately, the price range your thinking about seems a little low. Thor had a post over in the restoration section where he said he just received a "shooter" to rework (that had quite a bit of pitting) and I belive he said the fellow paid $650 (a little to high). I just bought a 1916 Erfurt matching #s minus the mag (which is era correct) and 1914 holster with correct takedown tool, for $500. Bad thing is, the left side of the pistol has some moderate to severe pitting. I plan on just shooting it for a while then 1st of the year, if Santa is good, send it off to Thor. From the pictures you've posted, (IMHO) I would think $500 - $600 would be more in line. On a side note, have you been out shooting any of those SS lugers lately? I sure enjoy my Mitchell.

Take care, Joe
