·I have a 1939 Luger, Mauser "42", and it is really a beauty. The bluing is about 100%, the serial numbers all match, including the two magazines. It has all the original marking, eagles, etc.
The gun has VOPO plastic grips, yet it appears to be original except for the grips. The 3 digit serial numbers were prefixed with a "7", and I can tell that because the 7s are very slightly misaligned with the original 3 digit numbers. It appears that the East Germans took an original pistol and put it into service without changing it.
How does that affect the value of this fine pistol? I'll post some pictures of it in a few minutes. Thank you.
