The "winged eagles" over a circle with swastika would have had the offensive swastika "peened" by the Russians when rebuilt after capture. Most were re-blued when rebuilt with a dark black finish.
It is a post WWII rebuild , from Russia or one of the associated republics, or East Germany.
The bullseye grips are EG, but could have been put on at any time or be original.
$5000 is someone's mis-informed dream; this variety luger is in the $800 to $1100 range.
Please don't just "hook on" to an unrelated post, starting your own post is easy.
