s/42 1937 Question

So... I am actually looking for a Ku marked Luger...

The left grip has the million dollar chip up near the safety lever. That can be repaired.

Looks like the locking lever spring may be broken or missing.

It's likely that the barrel replacement is period, but that would probably make it less valuable than an all matching gun. But, certainly more than a mismatch shooter.

The magazine is properly marked for a Ku gun, and it's matching to this one. That could be more evidence that the Ku guns were made at an armory or higher level repair center.

Finish looks decent. What are they asking for it?
