Why do you think it does not look military?

It has military (exposed) serial numbering, is 9mm, it has serial number on the magazines

It was a russian capture, so was used in war (and there were commerical lugers used in war).

Price is a bit high for a "shooter", however, you could sell one mag for around $75-$100, so ... Although that would be a shame, unless it is obvious that it is a forced match.

So, although high, it "might" make for an interesting set.
