Has anyone ever bought lugers internationally? Here is auction in Munich with a bunch of lugers. What is your take on this. does good stuff come from overseas and is there a market for it over there.

Well Put,
I would like to hear from the rest of you on this. what does it take to buy a pistol from overseas. will a Curios and Relics work? How is the market in Europe for Lugers. Do they hold their value? Do European collectors come to the states to buy? Regards, |

Some Commerial or Police lugers may be importable on a C&R license with a form 6, but military lugers are not. In most cases, Lugers are selling for more in Europe than here and the shipping and import fees generally add so much, that it's not practical. Tom H.

Importing Lugers is a very risky business. I adressed this on the old forum and would strongly recommend people against it except in very extenuating circumstances.
