1917 Police DWM on Gunbroker

Tony Sandrin · 05-17-2017, 02:18 AM

Hi guys,

I've been talking to this guy regarding his DWM Police rework on Gunbroker. To my untrained eye, it looks pretty decent but I wanted to get the opinion of the professionals on this forum before I "pull the trigger". What do you guys think? Is it worth what he is asking for it?

Thanks for the help!

Doesn't look bad, but a little tough to tell about the finish against that strong blue background.
Looks to be matching, including mag. Rebarreled with a Simson barrel by the police. You could do much worse.

I'd ask about the bore- but maybe it is in the description and I missed it. Probably ok.

$1500 is about as good as you can do for a police luger with matching magazine-

Matching magazine?

Looks like one matching police marked magazine. It's the #2 magazine.

$400 overpriced imo. Make him an offer.

I agree with Don in that it's a decent looking Police Luger and it's hard to find one these days for much less than he's asking.
