Still no success in getting the barrel section and receiver to separate ;( I have been soaking it with severeal cans of WD40 and pounding on it but no go. I have even tried a special rust solvent that cools down the rust to -40 C to crack the rust and then penetrate it with the rust solvent, but that didn´t work either.

I guess that the small tolerances of the luger makes it hard for the solvent to penetrate enough to get to the rust.
