Another M2 Luger

Jasta2 · 02-25-2019, 12:47 PM

Opinions on this please. Really looking for a shooter, but came across this on GB. I notice another M2 on the forum recently. I though it might something special as a shooter with some history. Not sure of what it's value in the condition it is., but if it stays in the $1,000+ some range, I might bid on it. I value the forums opinions.

It appears to be a totally correct M2, but because of the condition I wouldn't go too much higher than your $1000+ range. At that price it is in the transition between low end collectible and high end shooter.

Hi Jasta, I paid a little more for my less original M2, it only digests the PPU ammo flawlessly.
I wanna get a fluted firing pin and better grips to get it up to modern standards.

Well Jasta,
Did you buy it or not?

Gave a go at it, but lost out. My max bid was $1,100. I should have place a higher max, but I neglected to do it in time. It sold for $1,125. I kicked my butt for not bidding higher, but I feel even if I went to $1,200, I would have been out bid. I'll post a WTB soon looking for that $1,000 +/- shooter. Guess I'll do another WTB for a 1900 mismatched, in so-so condition. I just to own another 1900. Miss owning that test Eagle!

You may be out a shooter, but you just made $1100.00! And if the winner was determined that could have cost you a lot more.
