In my opinion, you have a luger made up from parts of other lugers. The barrel and the S-42 toggle were never originally together. The barrel was force matched by adding the frame serial number. It would make a good shooter but never a collectible luger. Can you still get your money back? I would place the value around $800 - 900 or so strictly as a shooter. I'm sure my opinion is not good news but maybe you can get a refund or price reduction? Welcome to the Forum and the crazy world of luger collecting. I'm sure others will get in here with their opinions. Bill
