G-Date Police Contract Gun B90/S92 proofs
 

Saw a G-date Luger at gun show with police sear and capture papers, so it is a not a post war rework. Appears all matching, but it has been heavily buffed and refinished (so bad the "G" was obliterated). But the proof markings were still legible and are B90/S92 proofs. Thought the police contract guns are later G date. Anyone seen other police guns with B90/S92 proofs? Would it be worthwhile to buy and restore (seller asking $895)?

The cost to restore starts at around $400 and up, so that has to be taken into consideration, and if letters have to be "fixed" then that adds to the cost. Also, in the collecting frat, a restored gun will never sell as well as an original piece, even if done very well.

Otherwise, WAIT for an original piece.

OOPS!!! Went back with another collector more familar with police modified guns with sear safety. Suffice to say it WAS NOT A police gun.
