Hi folks, I'm new here and I have a question:
I recently acquired a 9mm Luger P-08 that I was told was a "Russian capture" and I'm trying to figure out its value. The original serial number (3667) has been crossed out and restamped with serial # 3203. The Luger is in beautiful and excellent condition. It also bears two eagle marks on the right side of the frame with the number '655' below each one. The restamped serial number recurs with the last two numbers '03' on the smaller parts,indicating matching part numbers. It's dated 1940 on the top of the chamber, but has '42' stamped on the toggle. It does not have DWM marks that I know of.
Does anyone have a clue as to its approximate value?
Thanks,
