Someone has already mentioned using a magnet to determine whether it's steel or aluminum, but another way is the weight. I own one of the steel variety (shot it just this afternoon!), and it is a chunk!! You can definitely tell the difference.

What is the value of a 22 Lr Stoeger luger?

i just bought on for $199 a good deal. There are two versions of the 22LR. One is the earlier all steel and the other a much lighter alluminum frame. The first version is a sought after pistol and worth more. Typically between $400 - $500. Actually you are turned around with this weapon. Stoeger first made this Luger with an Aluminum frame from 1969-1979. In 1980, they went to a steel frame and then only produced them until 1985. Value is assessed mainly by condition of these pistols, and not by production date. (I have a first year Stoeger with a serial number of 13xx). Also the more (original) clips you have along with an original holster or even the box, will significantly improve value.
