Erfurt/DWM Parts Luger Project

Vlim, I understand your position. Mine position is a VoPo Luger with mismatched numbers and a toggle receiver manufacturer mismatch, cannot be assumed to be a VoPo produced configuration when the original finished configuration has not been seen. Not having seen what it was before it was redone, it is a little difficult to say it was a nice example of an East German rework.

If it was nice, this may have been a questionable call, but no-one has asked what kind of shape it was in or if the mismatched parts appeared to belong the the post WW2 government rework. So, lets have a few facts before we tell somebody they messed up a nice example. I cannot make out the proof marks, the chamber marking or see any evidence beyond the black plastic grips that suggest its pedigree.
