One of the most beautiful of the Luger variations, and I congratulate you on your great find and good buy.

One of my 1900s is in MUCH worse shape... pitted, no remaining finish at all, but unmuddled, still functional, and fully matched.
I nicknamed it the Junkyard Dog, but have never considered restoration.
It has its own story to tell, and wears its scars proudly.
I just keep a light coat of oil over the bare metal, so it doesn't rust.
