Need help with finishes on C96
I just started working on one of my Broomhandles, the plan is to reline it and make it a looker/shooter. Some parts are obviously fire blued, but I don't know if all variations were done the same way. This one doesn't have the new safety, which I believe makes it a pre-WWI model. The parts I'm planning to fire blue are:
Rear sight assembly
Safety lever
Bolt stop
Extractor
The parts I'm unsure about are the hammer and the trigger, and there could possibly be some other small parts that should be fire blued as well (like the floor plate release button). Also seems like all C96 firing pins are strawed, but it would be good to confirm that.
