Luger's are a world of their own. Value ranges can go from a few hundred to multiple thousands. I would suggest posting over at http://luger.gunboards.com/ with the following information Barrel length Caliber Detailed description of magazine(s) Any accessories described in detail (holster, loading tool, etc.) All markings on the Luger described in detail. Pictures if you can
Amazing as it may seem, the holster for the German Luger can be worth as much as $300.
value depends on overall condition............174 is probably the serial #. that would mean the pistol was made in early 1918. On top of luger in middle of toggle would be the makers logo...................
go to: gunsamerica.com check out the gun condition and price asked on lugers. compare it to yours for price
The value depends on overall condition. If you have a P38, then you don't have a luger. They both fire the 9mm luger cartridge though.
$5500 in excellent condition
The same value as any other luger of similar model and condition. And I have to ask- you know this how?
Without a detailed description; 100-10000 USD
There are DOZENS of different variations of Luger pistols, and the serial number alone does not tell which model. Values are based on EXACT model, condition, and originality, Value of an original Luger may run from $300 to $3000. You will need a hands on appraisal from someone that knows Lugers. Sorry, but without a LOT more information, we can't even make a good guess. You might also check for gun shows in your area- you have a lot of dealers and collectors gathered in one handy location.
$13 USD or RM 32 in 1945. GI's paid up to $100 for a war trophy
Luger's will generally sell for $900-2000. Take it to an older gunsmith or shop owner for a decent appraisal. Most will do it for free. Or atleast take it to a gunshop that has some older-looking guns in it. Tell the shop owner your Luger is a family heirloom so they don't think you'll potentially sell it to them. Condition and caliber make a huge difference. The most common chambering is in .30 Luger. It's almost ironic how hard ammo is to find for the that popular chambering. There are very few Lugers chambered for the very common 9mm Luger round. These pistols sell for much more. (~$2000) Serial numbers on German pistols don't mean much because they are said to be false. Germany stamped repeats of serial numbers to disguise it's mass production of arms right before WWII. FYI: It's generally considered a bad idea to publicly share the serial numbers of guns you own, although it's not really as big of a deal in this case, since it's a gun with a factory-stamped false serial number. Serial number is usually important in terms of value though, so if you post another serial number in the future, post it like so: "75XX" or "7XXX"
Lex Luger is still very much alive.
Actually, yes i do better yet, don't be concered with serial numbers, not helpfull to any degree. top of luger, over chamber, is the date gun was made. same goes for the rifle.
