value of 1914 east german rework
 

I would like to know the value of a east german rework. The receiver is stamped 1914 and the toggle s/42. It appears to never have been used. It still has a lot of cosmoline on the outside and inside and is in very good condition.

Hi, Best to post this in the new collector's forum...

These VoPo pistols can vary quite a bit in price.

A 1914 receiver would be from early WW-I era, and could be either a DWM or an Erfurt receiver.

The toggle is from just before WW-II.

It's most certain that the various parts of your Luger have been used. The appearance is probably due to refinishing. Some of these have a "dip" style refinish.

You may find a variety of rework marks on your Luger.

To estimate a value, you'll need to show us some pictures.

As a good shooter:

More than $500... Less than $800...
