1940 S/42 questions

homefries04 · 08-23-2017, 03:09 PM

Hello there. I just purchased my first Luger and have some questions. I am curious about the value of the firearm, but also about the mismatched parts. I was told by the previous owner that this was a battlefield capture. Were captures often mismatched parts or does that indicate the story is incorrect. There is pitting on the barrel and the magazine catch spring is broken. Thank you so much for your help and time, I'm glad to finally be joining the forum.
