Matt,

I tried to provide you with an answer this morning, but my computer acted up and it did not post, so here goes again.

I have not seen the SOG Lugers, but they are probably the East German reworks and this is why the numbers all match. many of these reworks have the barrel replaced and you get a really nice bore with lot of shooting life in them. The East German reworks I have seen are in very good condition and make excellent shooters. I also feel that these pistols should have a place in anyones collection because they have been reworked by a Government authority. The finishes I have seen were the salt, or dip blue and seem to be a little better quality than the Russian reworks with nothing done except dip blue them over all the pitting, and bad bores.

As with ordering any of these pistols, you never know what you will receive until it arrives, but I have heard that SOG will replace any firearm that is not as advertised. Go for it and I hope you get a really nice one. Let us know what you get and how it looks.

Marvin
