No matter how much advise you take regarding self-refinishing of a firearm, I would suggest that you perform a lot of practice on something other than your intended Luger until you feel you are proficient in creating the surface you want your Luger to look like... You can only do the Luger ONCE... but a bar of 4140 steel (probably obtainable on ebay for a couple small pieces) can be used for your learning experience... Don't chance your Luger parts until you are sure you want to inflict restoration on it's parts
