erma 22 lr luger

Any ideas of value in good condition with 1 mag. I never shoot it . Rather have old rolling block 22 rimfire like Remington model 6 or stevens. Just ideas for now.

I have no idea of their current value, but I almost bought one at a pawn shop in Palm Springs back in '99 during a weekend day trip visit. Only reason I didn't go for it was the drive to and from for the ten day wait.

As I recall the asking price back then was $250, though I'm sure that was negotiable since it was a pawn shop.

I haven't seen another one since and have often wondered how they shoot.

As long as it functions well and doesn't look worn out, I wouldn't sell it for less than $300.

Auction sites have them between $175-350 depending on condition and accessories.
^Average being $290.

any chance it's the ERMA NAVY .22 LUGER-LOOKALIKE...with the longer barrel?

[edgerly779]

No it is the plain jane version was in my dads stuff a long time ago. I have the bring back 1911 and the model 98.

Had a Stoeger Luger in .22 rimfire many years ago. It was a fun plinker and interesting looking. Always attracted attention at the range. Finally gave it away to a friend who admired it back in the day when you could still do that sort of thing.

I paid a hunnid for one a few years back here on CG marketplace. Had to have the chamber reamed (it was too short to chamber 22LR correctly) and had to peen the disconnector strategically to make a hump in just the right spot for the reset to work reliably. Now it runs ok, not perfect - about like a real Luger

The one I got had some rather interesting/strange engraving work. But I never pass up a hundred dollar gun, so....

[sealocan]

^ I think I remember that one, it looks like some young guy had made his own designs, maybe with some words and they had no engraving experience, possibly even using a nail to do it.

But hey I agree with you a hundred dollar gun is hard to pass up.

You could probably prep and cerakote it to make it look better than new but hundred dollar items are sometimes best just to get working and enjoy that way in my opinion.

^^it was a young kid who did it, but he held on to that gun into his 70’s before I got it. So I’m just gonna leave it, far be it for me to paint over what may be a Picasso

Those pistols were never that reliable, that's why you see so few---they were brought-in because of the Luger look---they never worked well---I managed gun stores back in the day would not buy a used one because customers would not be happy---never bought new ones to sell for same reasons...
