New Luger purchase

Cool acquisitions. Congrats.
But, I never saw an over polished, nickel plated Luger that didn't make me want to cry.

Yeah, I really wasn't planning on purchasing it when I dropped off the artillery to get restored ( I don't really mind restoring 'parts' guns and Lugerman does some exceptional work ). He had just finished up with it (probably picked it up cheap ) and brought it out to show me...and I fell in lust with it. He didn't it any way represent it as number a matching luger and I wouldn't have cared anyway. It does have a lot of '99s' all over the gun...but it has a 'S/42' stamped on the barrel length-wise in between the barrel matchmarks and the serial number...weird.

I realize the luger community at large frowns upon chrome plating lugers. It must've been a mess...anyway, it's found a good home.
