    Not really, I use the same agency Ive been with for 50 years. If you have other exotic or high end weapons, contact Collectors Firearms in Houston for appraisals etc.
    Thanks again.

    Thank you so much, just posted photos. Appreciate you
    Sorry if I missed it in the thread, but:
    - The one with the black grips is a black widow?
    - The other one with the brown grips is not?
    - Are there Lugars with black grips that are not considered black widows?

    I believe so.

    “End of contract” Mauser Mfg P08 1941-42 with bakelite grips (wood shortages) and “byf” or “41” on the toggle link were the black widows, if i remember correctly.

    So, slapping black grips onto any old luger doesn’t make it a black widow.
