I had allot of time on my hands, so I brought it out to carefully look at it. I then decided that I want to know more about ths particular pistol. It has been in my safe for quite some time. I trusted the dealer since I was and still am new to collecting firearms. I think he was unaware of the refinishing himself. when he sold it to me . He has one other Luger almost identical to mine that he kept in his collection.
I am now thinking there are allot of refinished firearms out there being sold as completely authentic. Some refinishing can be real difficult to detect unless the person knows what to look for. I need to understand what to look for before I purchase another firearm.
