General questions for all :

1. If a luger is collectible, would an Owner's attempt to brighten up the bore be a 'good thing" ?...from a collector's point of view ?

2. I have a 1918 DWM artillery that has the typical dark, pitted bore but still has very good lands & grooves. I have been told by many this is typical on arty's and should be left alone. Most future buyer's would want to see this bore condition...What say the experts ?

3. Finally, would bore brightening be an activity that some here on the Forum woud call "boosting" ?

Thanks for your opinions and advice...
