I don't know if there's a collector market for the VoPo reworks but for someone who wants a "shooter", they offer better value than most. I have another that I also bought many years back and had a new 6" .30 barrel installed... by Tom Heller, IIRC. It's a great shooter and certainly not a collector piece. It's perfect for anyone who wants to experience shooting a Luger without taking a chance on damaging a valuable collector piece.
