Ok good to know thank you for the info about not loading the magazine and about shooting it. Once I check it over for matching parts I'll give an update. I am still learning about how to categorize a Luger in the shape that I received mine.
Is it worth it to try some techniques to remove the rust and corrosion? I've seen some info on boiling the Luger parts so that it doesn't hurt the finish. Also using some fine steel wool to remove rust seems to be common.
And I've seen some will re-blue an old Luger, but would that hurt its value as a collectable?
Basically if I want it to keep as much value as possible, is there anything I can/should do to make it look better cosmetically?
