1938 S/42, a couple of questions (pic)

johnnv · 03-02-2004, 12:42 AM

Hello all,
I got this Luger about 19 years ago from a private party. The finish shows only the slightest wear and is completely matching except for one part. That part is the rear toggle pin (correct name?) located at the rear sight. My first question is how much would this affect the value of the gun? Next, I had a dealer tell me he thought the color of the safty lever looked different from the rest of the gun so it may be a replacement. I looked at the safety lever on another gun of mine, a 1941 byf Luger and it looks the same to me. Has anyone noticed this on their Luger?
By the way, this is a great forum. You can learn a lot here.
