Although they are moving towards collector status, VoPo DDR pistols are a good choice as well, especially when Mauser parts were used. These pistols were thoroughly overhauled in the 1950s and regularly checked during their service life. Many of these pistols were checked over and refurbished in the late 1990s when gun houses like Frankonia in Germany sold them.
But then again, one always has to take the damage of parts into account when shooting these pistols. Everyting has a shelf life, a service life and a breaking point.
