Appraiser

Can anyone recommend a firearms appraiser who knows Lugers and who has formally appraised estate collections? Any leads would be appreciated.

Mark, where are you located?

Depends on the location, where are you at? And, size of the collection?... best, GT

Many thanks, Ed.

I am a about 45 north north of NYC. 24 pistols, 18 of which are Lugers. More specifics on that after I get the appraisal done. Some of you “old timers” may remember me from posting in 2011 about my dad’s collection that was going to auction. This is what remains.

I have also done appraisals several times for shops in the Raleigh, NC area.

OK! I was curious about the collection, so I looked up the original thread -

I don't recall if I looked at the auction pics, but I probably did. I was also amused by Albert's comments on The Great Russian Contract Controversy. I followed his epic thread on why he thinks there was no such thing and that pretty much killed an entire evening.

Forrest Gump was right on when he said, "LugerForum is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get".
