Question,

Have ya'll picked up weapons where there is a halo around
the stamped numbers?

Is it easy seen etc. or is it one of those things that
you typically see when take a close up pic of it?

I'm new and don't mean to offend anyone by the
questions I'm asking, I know of no other way to learn.

Please don't think that because I'm wanting parts for
my luger, so I can shoot it and not worry if
pieces break, that I"ll ruin any value my piece has. I would
like it to be period correct, numbered, fitted, blued, and look as original as possible.

When I first got the luger I thought it was a forgery because
of the differences in bluing on the weapaon. Then I learned
of the salt and pepper blueing and that some of it wasn't blue
at all, but brown. The parts that had this are the hold open
and the extractor.

Any way I've learned a lot in the short time I've been here and
hope to learn more.

Thanks for your patience,

Spike
