The price of postwar Luger has a cap -- the price of prewar Luger. And the market is very small. If there were a chance, Mitchell, AIMCO etc had not discontinued their stainless version. It's a dead-end.

[Edit] With so many German Lugers, the market does not need another high quality high price reproduction. What missing was a low quality low price one, for example, a $200 new Luger, with this finish. It will compete with those "shooters" or parts gun that people spending $500-$700 on and had hard time to get them work (why guns do not work are called shooters?
) That's the target market.
