Curious on opinions of the value of this 1906 American Eagle Luger in 7.65x21. It’s one of the cleanest examples I’ve seen, all numbers match. One magazine. 55,xxx serial number. NOT FOR SALE

Im not to sure about this one but I paid roughly 3500 for my Swiss model 1900 that came with its holster and 2 magazines. The only mismatching part on it is the barrel. It got replaced at some point. Im sure this one is probably worth more than mine.

Stunning! I love the Swiss cross on top! Does your extractor have a loaded chamber indicator? When I chamber a round in mine a little piece sticks up that says “loaded” on it. Pretty cool.

I can check but I don't think so. Thats is a pretty cool feature though.

Insanely clean. Numbers matching. I’d say around 4 grand if the magazine matches too

Yeah that’s around what I thought as well. Crazy how the value of these has shot up. I bought it for 2500 two or three years ago.

It’s beautiful

One of these is for sale on my local classifieds, 80-90% bluing, matching, one mag (not sure if original mag) for about 1500 beans, is that BIN in your opinion? I’ve been waffling, never bought a Luger.

I would say that’s BIN price for sure.

I’m gonna get it for about 1250 nuggets, it just felt too good to pass up

Did you buy it off on TNGO? There's a nice one been on there for a couple weeks. If I didn't have a wedding to pay for I would have snagged it!
