Good for you. I think you are correct that there may have been some partial work done...a "touch-up" rather than a total restoration. It is a great looking piece and a tough Luger to find. I like it too and would be happy with it. I prefer unrestored nice guns, but like you, I usually can't afford them. A nicely restored (or touched-up) rare piece is better than not having one at all, provided it is represented as such and the price is commensurate.
Let me know if you ever decide to sacrifice this lamb!
Best regards,
Ron
