This appears to be the correct forum for my question.

Approximately 1963, I traded a recorder for a Luger. It was brought back by the older brother in 1945 with holster and two mags (non matching serial #'s. Toggle is S/42; chamber is K; Knob is round and knurled; no grip safety; stock lug is present; 9mm; walnut checkered grip with no border; thumb safety is "on" in rear position with "Geschert" marking; proof mark type #43 on barrel and right frame; barrel length of 3 3/4; "Geladen" on left edge of extractor; bluing is approx. 95%; straw is approx. 85% to 95%; bore is bright and clean; all serial #43 match (except mags); eagle over M on left panel; property # O.XXXX on front grip strap; 8,82 under barrel near frame; holster has S over A, 1939 with spread eagle and name of "Klittch" in ink under flap.

Any assistance in identifying the pedigree and approximate value of this weapon would be appreciated.

Thanks,
