Quick question...

It destroys collectibility for the purist. That, being said, there is a growing nitch for these guns as they have a "post war" context of GIs nickeling them to throw into their tackle box, glove compartment, etc. after the war.
They still bring shooter prices, minus, but are nice in their own right.

If you do a Search, there are a couple pics of plated Lugers with various aftermarket grips. IMHO, a nickle finished Luger with ivory grips looks pretty sharp. Chrome, not so much...
