Byf 42

I just found a number of lugers on consignment at a local gun shop. One was a BYF with 42 marked on the chamber. The serial number is 3732f (I'm pretty sure it's an "f". All numbers match. It has two unmarked aluminum based magazines that are stamped with P08, FXO and an eagle over 37. Both magazines are identical. It comes with a holster that is in good condition, except the closure strap buckle is missing. There is no tool included. The holster is marked 1941, then an eagle over swastika, then gut and finally P08.

I didn't get all of the proofs yet. I would estimate the finish at about 90% with holster wear at the muzzle and high spots. If this is a pure pistol, is it worth the $1600 asking price?

I'm worried about the blued trigger, takedown lever and safety.
