Pricey Plated Pistole Parabellum

383 magnum · 11-30-2007, 07:48 AM

Despite predictions that the economy may be going tits up due to high gas prices and the weak dollar, Luger prices are on the rise if non-original pistols are bringing this much. I am thinking the original 60-percent finish S/42 with capture paper and spare magazine I bought for a grand earlier this year was a bargain. I realize there is some interest in plated pistols due to many having been done by vets, but of course there is no proof who plated the pistol and regardless, it is still ruined IMHO. Just my two cents worth, if the buyer is happy, that's all that really matters.
