I also think it's been refinished but, as has been said, a very professional job judging from what I can see. I am not surprised at the lack of machine marks in the safety area as early Lugers were finished to the very highest of standards. My father often remarked about the finish of early Lugers he owned back in the 1920's and how all external machine marks had been polished out.
