I am considering selling my Mauser 1934 early Navy pistol in cal. 7,65 with Reichswehr style eagle and would appreciate opinions about its current market value. The pistol is in 90% condition or better, all original as issue, with matching magazine. It is also marked with Navy Ostsee property number on mag and front grip strap. As these are seldom offered for sale, it is hard to figure out what is a fair market value. Of course, this is an other evil 12(6) pistol. Any advice will be much appreciated, thanks!

What these little Mausers are actually worth and what someone is willing to pay nowadays is two different things, as you have correctly stated the 12/6 issues and the fact that the Mauser is not exportable (the BATF 25 point rule) makes the pistol no less valuable to the owner but the buyer has all the stroke on this particular model.
O property marked navy Mausers are harder to come by than N property marked pistols but by no means rare in Canada. Marine marked Mauser HSC's is another matter.
Hard to nail down an actual price, I've seen them go between 800 and 1200 with pistol and holster, trouble is that was before the markets took their nasty bites out of all of our shorts. send me couple of photos if you will as I am interested in this one if all correct and condition is as you say.
Hope the info helps.

You are asking for fair market value. What I paid was not.
$50 each for a Mauser 1934 and a HSC with holsters. Widow was going to had them in for destruction. RCMP officer I knew suggested instead to sell them. She set the price and I said OK. I might have gone up to $100 each though.

awesome, i wish i had a congratulatory cookie to give you
No problem man.
But I still prefered my $175 Luger with holster and dual matching number mags (he wanted $25 more than the P38). Too bad about the two dents put on the gun from the muzzel brake the previous owner made. I tell people it was from the silencer I could not take.

Prohibs attract low value.
As nice as some prohibs are, the market is limited and the desirability is marketedly down. Unless you are a fan or a collector.
The prohibited value rule would come into fashion unless your gun is exceptional and desirable. Say, a prohib Python, Anaconda, Diamondback, or some such gun.
Since we are all left with that nasty Liberal legacy, in my opinion, your gun is worth C$200.00. Tops.
