Aquired a commercial Luger and need info

I don't know if it's the photo, but the DWM toggle markings look a bit "soft" (perhaps buffed and refinished). Also the strawed finished parts are almost too perfect to be original. If I'm correct, this would lower the value by at least 25%. TH

Hi Tom, I too, have reservations about this gun. I don't collect Commercials, but I would have thought the barrel serial number would show halos. Regards, Norm
