I've been looking for an original sight hood for my G33/40 and have the chance at one of these.One of these though,the nicer one is being sold by a guy here in the states but I looked in his history and the first few pages had about 9 different G33/40 sight hoods that he has sold!!!!! I thought these things were rare,could it be possible that one seller would have so many?

sight hood #2 -
I'm no expert so I can't be of much help, but I'd be skeptical, too.Comment

Not for me. The metal looks very thick and the finish texture and even shape look off to me....I'm sure there was some variation...but this is not what I am used to seeing....
Probably if they are less than a couple of hundred dollars they are fake
and maybe fake even if they are priced at that.
Now that 33/40s have hit over 5k I will have to adjust the price of my sight hood when I sell it.Comment

What about the #2 pictures,that one looks a little thinner and has a little rust...any hope?Comment

I wouldn't touch the first one. The second one looks it might be okay.Comment

I do not know the exact market on the orignals right now, but there is no such thing as a bargan on a real one from anyone who knows what they have or even someone who does not if they offer them in a public venue...like the web or a show....they will sell in a second....Comment

I tried to look at that thread you showed me and found my old password.I logged on but for some reason I cant open that thread.I looked on that site and really couldn't find a specific thread for G33/40 hoods.

Nobody else wishes to comment on #2 sight hood,I need a little more courage to think about pulling the trigger on this piece.Comment

I have purchased from Legacy collectibles many times. They have a really good reputation in the Luger,P38, and PP/PPK field and they stand behind what they sell. They also find some rare and amazing stuff.Comment

Yaaaaa, I just purchased the #2 sight hood from Legacy off of ebay,got it for 115.00.I think that was kind of a deal since these go for up to 200.00!!!!!
