Dwight,

Congratulations on your new Luger.

Since it has ALREADY BEEN REBLUED once before, by all means, have it done properly if that suits you.

I recently bought a 1918 DWM which had all matching parts, but had been completely salt blued by someone, including the small parts. I sent it to Thor for a proper rust bluing and strawing, and it is now a real beauty. Looks like a new Luger.

No regrets, and I am sure that I haven't reduced the value by properly reblueing the gun.

Good luck,

Luke
