What happened to the metal finish on the Navy, it seems to have changed completely?
Are they even the same pistol?

But the grips look great.
Jim has always been my go to guy for grip repair and/or checkering!

Check the last sentence in the post. Photos taken at different times. Low light in one pic, bright light in the other. It's the same Luger.

That has to be the most "difference" caused by lighting or its lack, and subsequent influence on appearance I have ever seen.

The pistol really has no finish, and in the first picture it was just in "shadow"?

Amazing, makes one "afraid" to believe any auction pictures.
