    I'm trying to establish a price range for my Walther PP 1st variation.
    http://www.tague.at/pistolen/en_index.htm
    (high gloss, eagle over N, I know it's early SN: 1813XXP)

    I'd say mine's between good and very good.... More trying to figure out price range, it's harder than most.
    Any help?

    -I haven't shot this thing in over 10 years, and I've got another "shooter", so I figure it's time for me to pass it on.

    It all depends... does it have the original paperwork? The original case? Any pitting? Grip condition? Bluing percentage?

    Import marks? Engravings?

    Pictures would help.

    More looking to establish a range (although I may post pix later...) right now.
    It's worth enough.... It'll go, if not, I may wait.

    No paperwork, no import marks, just the gun/mag
    Its got some wear, (I HATE trying To get %)

    .NRA MODERN GUN CONDITION STANDARDS:

    NEW: Not previously sold at retail, in same condition as current factory production.
    PERFECT: In New condition in every respect.* (Jim's note - in my experience, many collectors & dealers use "As New" to describe this condition).
    EXCELLENT: New condition, used but little, no noticeable marring of wood or metal, bluing perfect, (except at muzzle or sharp edges).
    VERY GOOD: In perfect working condition, no appreciable wear on working surfaces, no corrosion or pitting, only minor surface dents or scratches.
    GOOD: In safe working condition, minor wear on working surfaces, no broken parts, no corrosion or pitting that will interfere with proper functioning.
    FAIR: In safe working condition but well worn, perhaps requiring replacement of minor parts or adjustments which should be indicated in advertisement, no rust, but may have corrosion pits which do not render article unsafe or inoperable.

    Realistically around $500 to $600. I just sold one very similar but later serial number. These aren't as collectable as the PPK or the Lugers. Check gunbroker to see what folks are actually selling them for not what some are listing them. While not the best way to check prices, it will give you a realistic perspective on about what you can expect.
    Unless it's a very rare one, its not going to bring much more than that.

    Someone here said a couple grand if you get the right buyer.... If you find that guy, jump on it! :) but don't hold your breath unfortunatly. :(

    My wife paid $550 for a 1935 commercial model in the same condition with no import stamp. I believe the wartime ones are not as common, so I would take no less than $600.
