Newbie with a gun value question

BarryR · 08-02-2012, 08:42 PM

I have a German made Walther PPK .32 Auto that I purchased new in Germany in 1968. It's functionally in excellent condition (has never stovepiped or failed to feed), 95+% original blue, 2 original magazines, extra extended magazine floorplate, original brass cleaning rod and firing pin disassembly tool, no box or manual. I am not looking to sell it but I was thinking of insuring it and I'm looking for a ballpark value. I couldn't find much online, but maybe I just don't know where to look. Not ebay, that's for sure

Without the original box, test targets, factory manual, cleaning rod, etc. it will bring around $550. If you had purchased it in .22 or .380 caliber it would be worth a couple of hundred bucks more.

Thanks for the quick response. As for it being .32 Auto, I was into James Bond in '68

I carry it with Silvertips. Never had to find out if it's enough gun or not and that's the way I'd like to keep it.
