Looks restored to me. Bill

Absolutely restored. The Barrel Gauge numbers and Barrel Serial have almost been buffed clean off. He also fails to mention that his "two matching magazines" are police reissue stampings.

I have not doubt that it is re-done; and way over priced even if not, IMO.

Nice gun, absolutely restored, I think it's probably overpriced...

number removal marks on the magazines are quite obvious. Nice reblue job, but the "soft" edges definitely indicate buffing...

I've never noticed such things before, but on one magazine the numbers "face" forward, on the second magazine they face the opposite way.

I think that his Buy Now price has everyone scared off. 3 days left and not one bid filed.

Nice looking Luger, with a great, fully equipped holster, along with a nice scarce marked tool.

Could be reblued by German police contractor then, will that make any difference?

This contractor did not polish the muzzle to white.

I doubt a "G" date had time to be re-work in the period.
