Gentleman,
I'm retired and after a lifetime of wanting a Luger, I finally got one last week.
It is a Mauser 42 made in 1939 with all matching numbers except the mag. It is in poor condition with very dirty wooden grips, metal finish about 60% and worn off in some places, has some pitting on the outside of the barrel etc. Mechanically it seems sound, bore looks decent.
It may be a while before I figure out your picture posting technique but my question to you guys is, should I just leave it alone or have it refinished.
I passed on a decent looking "shooter" to buy this one, but I like to shoot what I own.
I'm a M1 Garand collector/accumulator and participate in some CMP shooting...............Lugers are very interesting
