Rodin, The PO8s that your dealer mentioned that had been used by the Russians, are probably the same batch of reworks that we are also seeing here in the USA, but with our required importation markings under the barrel. These pistols generally have well worn original barrels, with many parts renumbered to match, particularily the side plates, which you mentioned. They generally also have replacement black plastic grips and renumbered magazines. Most are selling here in the $500 range, but if this G date is all ORIGINAL matching numbers, it is probably worth a bit more.
