At one point Stoeger and Numrich offered Luger barrels of various lengths, for installation by the local friendly gunsmith.

I wonder if that pistol works. The Luger is a recoil operated pistol, which means that the barrel has to move and that one looks long and heavy enough that its inertia could keep the gun from functioning.

While it has value to the owner and a certain curio interest, it has zero collector value. IMHO, it has no practical value, even if it works. (Not the thing for IWB carry!) A lot of money has been spent on it in the past to create something that a previous owner wanted, but that does not translate to dollars today.
