Banner GNR------Better pics

Finally got her out of layaway

Portguese GNR all matching, pretty honest. Only 564 in this contract. Mag is for a M2 and it is a nice one. I couldn't get pics of the gripstraps but they are nice. Weather wasn't cooperating yesterday. Now to find the correct magazine.

Nice GNR with icing...a nice M2 mag. I think it's easily worth 3K+.
Thanks for showing.

The previous post by Mike C. and I are keeping a rather informal record of known GNR Lugers. Would you mind contributing your serial number? Looks like 2369. If so, mine is 2268. 101 apart.

Yes, it is 2369v. It's not mine yet, I am going to talk to them again today about it.

From what I can see, it looks to be a very nice specimen. If there has been no bluing touch up, then the finish is quite nice. You may well want to take that home with you.

I'm not an envious person... but, being Portuguese and knowing that apparently none of those remain in Portugal...

You can guess the rest.

If you can afford the $2K do not let it get away.

Well, it's mine. I put it on layaway yesterday. I'll have to sell something but that's ok since I pick up good deals from time to time just for a situation as this. It's been somewhat of a drought, last Luger I picked up was almost 2 years ago.

For your list, my GNR is sn 2404v.

Congratulations on your buy.

Slightly envious,

Mac Cat · 11-04-2016, 11:08 AM

I'd buy it for that price!

Ben M. · 11-04-2016, 07:32 PM

m2 mag maybe $ 250. so sell and buy a gnr mag.

Douglas Jr. · 11-05-2016, 07:54 PM

You did just fine.
It is a rare bird and, just like my friend above, I'm green of envy!
Congratulations!
