Hi all
I am new to this forum and could use your help to find out the value of this luger. My friends father passed away so he gave me this gun to sell for him because i have a C&R licence but my knowledge of lugers is very limited. Through research i believe it to be a 1906 AE 7.62cal.

I would have to see better pictures to judge if it is reblued / restored or original

one picture you need is the one with the safety in the up position

PM sent with my email, if you want to send larger pictures to me.

It sure looks nice, and original. The pictures you took are very good and I can see the halo on the barrel and the rest of the finish looks good.

It is a 1906 in 7.65mm

I would hazard a guess that its worth at least $2000-$2400 retail, these don't sell as quickly as military versions, but nice guns always sell.
