I have a shooter P-08 that came back through Russia in the mid 90's when they were surplusing a lot of their old guns. It has been reblued (re-arsenalled in Russia), so not a collector, but it is one heck of a shooter. 1941 Mauser P-08 Luger with black plastic grips.
My Dad was in Germany at the end of the war, and a few years after the war had ended. Lugers were VERY desirable. So desirable he could not get one or wasn't willing to pay the price by the time he wanted want to bring back to my grand dad who was a cop. Instead he got a Walther PP in 7.65MM, that had been nickel plated, and sold as a souvenir.
