Those are both Mausers; an excellent choice for a 'starter' Luger. Besides the toggle codes, I prefer a chamber date as well [1937 in my case].

I am attracted to RC/VoPo refurbs. Their provenance didn't stop in 1945; they were issued or stored by the Eastern Bloc for many years afterward. They are all 'good' parts and almost all have new barrels. Price is under a grand too.

But that's just me. Others have valid reasons for their choices.
