Sorry Jim, it's a shooter now, no collector would touch it. My guess is $750.00, give or take $100.00.

Firing pins, extractors, ejectors, hold-open levers. I broke an upper barrel extension once too. How bad a job did Bubba do?

The ribs that the detectable stock attached are ground off, rounded and contoured to the frame and cooled blued
Bubba did do a fairly good job I think he knocked About $1K of it,s value to collectors Anyone know if this was commonly done? I can't do pictures, but it is a crisp example of a P 08 |

Less common than Conventional Wisdom would have you believe, but they are out there. As you describe it, it is a $500 gun and you would do well to talk it down from there.

Not real common, but this does appear sometimes.
In the confusion regarding full stock use, some Lugers did meet this fate Mostly in the 40s and 50s. |
