Thanks for looking everyone, and I do think you all are exactly right about the plum bluing.
It really *does* look wiped on.
I appreciate your knowledge, folks.

Well, I *did* give my Honey a couple of Lugers this year, but we have been married for 37 years, and I know where he keeps them.
He got a 1906 original 9mm AE, and a nice Mauser S/42 this year.
But he earns them....he has to put up with me yammering on excitedly about little tiny proof marks, and obscure Luger history all the time, hehehe!
And I always smell like Hoppes #9.
