In the event of an antediluvian inundation time is the key
After a storm in NJ, my neighbors log splitter was completely under water for a day.
After water subsided we removed the sparkplug - squirted oil into the cylinder
oiled the hydraulics and hand cycled a few times
re-assembled and 20 minutes later the thing was running
If it had been left for a day or two would have been a solid block of rust.
A complete strip - clean -and oil and I am sure your Luger would also be good
Only real concern would be the grips - but I do not think WD-40 in a plastic bag helps the grips either
