E. German Rework Value

[Vlim]

There is a developing VoPo collector market allright.

But, like with other variations, collector value means that it has to be in VoPo shape. Swapped out barrels, reblue jobs, grip swaps, etc... still move them to shooter status (although grip swaps are easily rectified).

Pricing of VoPo's is all over the place, I bought them between 250 - 750 Euros.

At the time I re-barreled the VoPo, they were inexpensive for a Luger and I wanted a good shooter in .30 caliber. I like the .30 very much and when loaded with hollow points, they are a wicked cartridge. Rather than shoot my more valuable, all matching and very collectable .30 Lugers, I used a mis-matched VoPo and put the new barrel on it. I also have a post-war P-38 (NIB) in .30 Luger and a Browning Hi-Power that's been shot only a few times. I bought it new. Then there's my Benelli B-80 that's also like new. The .30 Luger is one of my favorite cartridges.
