1st Luger purchase: Black widow rig original or refinished?
 

Hey everybody I have recently joined the Luger Forum and I am a new collector. This is my first post as well. I just picked up a Black widow rig on gunbroker.com and the finish seems a little good to be true. However, the wear for the pistol is in all the right spots. The seller has a great reputation and is a really nice guy. Please let me know your thoughts on the pistol and if it has been refinished. Thanks guys and I'm happy to have joined the forum!

P.S. I paid more than $500.00 for the pistol haha

Hi Jared,
Welcome to the forum! The finish on your "Black Widow" looks all original to me as does the rest of the rig.
Regards, Norm

You should have let everyone think you got it for $500... that would have made people insane LOL

Nice pistol by the way!

Not a big fan of WWII Lugers (as you can see by my "signature"...made after 1918 etc. :)) but this gun is a beauty. Well done.

Thanks Ron I really appreciate it! After I get a few more WWII Lugers in my collection I'm going to start collecting the older stuff. Thanks again, Jared.

Thanks man I really appreciate it! I'm sure a lot of people were upset and confused hahahaha. I will post some more pics once I receive the gun! Best, Jared.

Thanks Norme I appreciate the feedback! Best, Jared.
