Any idea as to the value of this Luger? (LARGE PICTURES)

Hello everyone,
A few years ago I made a post on here concerning a pair of Luger's.
I didn't have access to a good camera at the time. Now that I do, I was wondering if anyone has any idea as to the value of this Artillery Luger?

Magazine Does Not Match
Takedown lever not numbered
Grip has the idiot crack on it
Poor quality finish

DWM 1917 **43

Holster

Broken Belt

Stock

What is the year, and maker?

Here are my best WAGS;

I would think the DWM 1917 is worth around $1000-$1300 in the shape it is in.

The holster very little or the belt.

The stock, if original around $1500 with the leather, if it matches the gun, add another $500?

The maker is DWM and the year marked above the chamber is 1917.
