I can not see a suffix under the barrel, but expect there is a letter, as the serial number is too low to be a 1900.

I do not see a date, but the old school guys called these a 1920 commercial. Depending on the suffix, made 1925-1929 by DWM. It has crown n acceptance and the export germany stamp, all common. Are you sure it's 30 luger? I assume it is, but find a pencil, 30 Luger will be tighter a 9 mm would just let the pencil drop in, it is obvious.

I am pretty sure the frame has been reblued, too rounded from the front and deep dark bluing, but could be the light. If so, you might have over paid a bit. However, more pictures of the holster? It might be worth $40 or it might be worth $250... Any tool inside?

The extra mag is a Mecgar or triple k, good for shooting and worth around $25-$40
