it is too simple of a question (no offense).

There were several manufacturers, and many, many variations.

There is a mysteique about the nazi's and it is not so long ago as WW1.

WW1
DWM and Erfurt

Weimar era, DWM, Simson (soem reworks and special orders)

Nazi
(early and otherwise)

DWM at the end; then Krieghoff and then Mauser

Each has their own variations, their own proofs, accetpance, while having seperate variations of army, navy, police and commericial

Then, are you looking for long term 'value" or something to shoot?

I always tell folks, figure your era, then what type you want.
