This is indeed a run-of-the-mill VoPo luger which has been deprived of it's original (plastic) VoPo grips and had a piece of Pakistani goat butt added, together with aftermarket grips.

The Crown/N proofed barrel with the roughly finished muzzle crown is everything you'd expect from a DDR barrel, as are the magazines, X-ing out mismatching small parts numbers and a thorough reblue.

So ditch the repro grips and the goat, get yourself a nice pair of VoPo grips and a VoPo holster and it's a nice representative of the 1950s cold war era.
