Well I did it. I found a couple of decent videos about taking the Luger completely apart. Watched the video and than got to work. I opted for a field strip. I don't have all the necessary small tools and punches yet to do a complete take apart. Hopefully this winter when the snow will keep me in for a couple of days. Also need to build up the nerve to tackle it.
Only got one pinched finger. Some 000 steel wool and the out side looks a lot better that it did. Actually better than most I've seen that were in the same condition as mine. I did find out that the grips match the gun serial number. I was glad to see that since so many grips are replaced.
Everything got a thin coat of oil. I should/will post pictures of the cleaned pistol.
