First of all welcome to this Forum made by LUGER enthusiasts.

For what I can see from your photographs, it looks as if this gun has been heavily refinished with some sort of silver gun coat, which make the whole thing look quite unusual.
The barrel too might have been rebarreled, or changed, check the numbers under the barrel.

The grips seems far too new to be originals, so somehow they match the coating.

Having said that even if the gun was all matching, which I strongly doubt, might be a good shooter, but probably not a collectible, IMHO.

Anyway even if you only want it to go sometimes to the range, have it checked by a serious armourer, and shoot safe.
