Can someone identify this tool please

Just picked this up. Still need to know a fair value so I can sell it as I do not need it and would like someone who needs it to have it. Don't know much about them. Can someone tell me what I have, and a approximate value? Thank You! Mike

This is a Luger loading tool, sometimes called a 'screwdriver' which would be used to unscrew the grip screws, and firing pin retrainer.

It's primary purpose is to help hold the mag follower button while pushing down (upside down)

Do you know who it was made by, and when was it made?

To my knowledge, serial numbered tools are usually associated with Weimar Era police pistols. The tool would be numbered to the gun.

There is a complete tool "primer" here on the sight if you want to explore further.

Can someone lead me to the tool primer mentioned on here? Can not seem to find it? Thanks!

I"m trying to add a copy of Klaus's tool Data as a PDF, but the site won't let me upload it for it being .01 MB too big??

It is a Police tool which was stamped not earlier than 1932.

Can someone give me a fair value on this tool?

I sell these unmarked DWM tools for $50, but being serialized, it may be worth a bit more to the owner of a police luger with that serial number, and a bit less to anyone else. TH
