Astra Model 600-43

I have a pair of Astra 600-43 pistols and I would like to get some idea what their worth might be. I'm guessing from comparison that they are appproximatley 75-80%. They also have the original flap holsters with spare clip compartments, with the spare clips. And their serial numbers are sequential. I'm assuming this would add to their value if sold as a pair.
Also, can anyone enlighten me as to the stripping procedure on these? They certainly are different from any of my more modern seni-autos. Thanks for the help.

The value of your pistols would depend a lot on when they were made and who they were issued to.
The first 10,000+ were issued to the W W II Kraut Army and have their ordinance acceptance markings. They would be worth the most.
After the war a bunch were sold to the West German Police, you won't be able to get as much from these as the W W II issue 600's.
Apparently the serial numbers were "1 - 10,500" for the Nazi issue pistols, and 10,500 - 60,000 for the postwar pistols? If my references are correct?
