First, thanks to everyone who provided a wealth of information to my questions re: the "Cogswell & Harrison" marked S&W revolver I purchased.

I now have a question on behalf of a friend. He inherited a Walther 7.65 caliber PPK that an uncle brought back from Europe at the end of WWII. The pistol has no Nazi markings, is blued, in good / very good condition, with the flap holster (has spare mag pouch, but no spare mag), and the US military form, signed by the commanding officer, authorizing the bearer to bring the pistol back to the states.

My friend has no other family members interested in this piece of history (I find that as bizarre and distressing as you undoubtedly do ...). He is seeking funds to purchase a more modern, full-sized 9mm pistol, and has no real use for the .32 Walther. So, he'd like to sell it, and has asked me to help determine a realistic asking price.

I checked some of the Internet sales & auction sites, but can't really get a "feel" for a reasonable value. I have personally seen only a handful of documented WWII-associated Walther PPs/PPKs for sale at some gun shows, but have no idea if the prices I noted there were reasonable (I highly doubt they were, based on other, more familiar wares at those tables).

If anyone can help, I figure it's the knowledgeable folks here. Any thoughts, ballpark figures or value ranges would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!
