Elmer,

Here is a link to the AE pricing on the Simpson luger site :

Looks like your $ 1800.00 price is right there...the marble ivory bead sight probably diminishes value a bit, since not original to the gun...

Regards,

Elmer, Many early US luger buyers replaced the original front sight with an Ivory, Brass or Gold bead replacement made by Shered or Marbels (unsually marked on bottom of base or at least their catalog number). I do have both original or new Swiss 7.65 type spare front sight available for $25 each, so this is not a big deal.
