Hans, one of the reasons I did this is to remind people and show some of the new posters just what can be done with an old Luger or P.38, PPK, or Broomhandle in bad condition. They dont have to keep being passed up and continuing to degrade. The other aspect I see is a person that loves Lugers so much he wants to shoot one that look original and new. Many of us DONT want to see a real collection piece taken to the range a lot and handled much to take a chance on degrading the parts or finish or having a superb grip get a great big dent in the grips on the range bench. So a person can purchase a mismatched reblued salt blued shooter Luger and have me dress it up with rust bluing, strawed parts, fire blued parts and new looking grips. Straightening out buffed over edges help the appearence too making them look more like they did when they were issued.
