Default Re: WWII Walther PPK Value

Hi Guys: Being a new member on the forum and no disrespect intended,but the ppk is worth more than that.I've been collecting those little buggers along with the pp,s and have in the past several years seen prices going up higher,even more so than Lugers,which I also have.
The weapon is in at least 95% grade,though I must say the pics are not the best,but I see the loss at the muzzel.Which is very common.The pistol was manufactured early 1939 and as the gentleman stated a commercial unit with the crown/n proof.They started putting the eagle/n proof at the beginning months of 1940.You should take the slide off and look inside,next to the ejection port,and you will see the last 3 digits of the serial number.If you have never taken one down its really simple and the best place to go is Marstar Canada for the instructions.
Now back to pricing.Your pistol alone is worth 800USD.If it had a finger ext mag with it you could add 200 or more to that figure.You can tell the holster is nice,and a DRGM crossed rifle shoulder holster would bring 3-400USD easy.I'm hoping this will make you happy and you have something there that if it were mine and belonged to my dad,no monies could touch it.
Make sure you keep the weapon and holster cleaned and preserved and if you want to shoot it don't be afraid to do this as there are replacement parts availible every where,but in all my years of collecting and shooting these fine Walthers,I have never had any problems or none of my other Walther friends.Just shoot full metal jackets in them as they do have feeding problems with the hollow points,silver tips,etc.Hope this helps you some and if anyone needs any help with info on the PP,s and PPK,s,old ones that is,please do not hesitate to email me.
Best Wishes
Danny
