I am looking at a CYQ p 38 with a cog hammer,I need a cyq to go with my other p 38's.The weapon is about 90 to 95 % finish with brown grips.Any feelings on value,I know its hard to place without a Pic.I can get the weapon for around $550.

Cyq P38....
Multiple questions to ask....
1) is it all matching
2) how is the finish wear
3) what is the serial number, some production blocks are more valuable than others
4) any import marks, if there are this is too high of a price to pay...
That said I paid 425$ for my cyq about 2 years ago....they pop up on gunbroker anywhere from 475$ and up.....

bought mine for 375
that was four years ago.numbers should all match and grips be great and bore very good for 550. i would not sell mine for 550 so i guess that is a fair price unless its a mix match and an import and i am assuming it is ww2 production and waffen proofed.Comment

Cyq
numbers are all matching,not an import weapon.The finish is somewhere between 90 and 95 %.As I said it has a cog hammer on it but I do not remember the Ser.number.I have a nice AC 41 with matching mag and a nice BYF 43 both from veteran famlies and I want a CYQ to go along with those 2 .Comment

With an excellent bore that is a perfectly fair, if not a good price. Make sure it doesn't have a police mag in it.
You won't find anything except a beater on GB for $475.

Gene, I've gotten some reeaally good deals on P38s on GB. I bought about 10 over a period of a few months late last year. Including a pretty darn nice cyq cog. Then, there were usually 3 pages of P38s. These days there only seems to be about 1 page. The supposed "recession" has really hurt sales there. I check out a P38 forum occasionally, they sell them there too, but they seem to cost a bit more.Comment

That's not really a bad price if it is all matching, non-import of course!
If it is MM, or import marked, then it's overpriced.

Cyq
How desireable are the COG CYQ's and do they add value to the weapon.Comment

I don't think a cyq cog hammer is really worth any more than a non-cog. Some sellers will use that feature as a draw for the sale, then ask a little more, just because there are far fewer cogs than there are earlier models. It's all about conditon. I am a bore freak, so have no problem with a little exterior wear if it has a nice bright bore.Comment
