If you restored that rusted anchor into a working pistol, my hat's off to you!

Tons of work. I can't image any of the small parts survived.
That luger looks like it was recovered from a sunken ship or submarine.

The photo you showed has a serial number (blurry, but looks like "329") and suffix "m".
I don't see any german navy marking. Can you point it out ?

P.S. I've got an old gun soaking in oil on the back of my garage shelf, too. It's a 1973 Colt DA that is too rusted to take apart.

I'd really like to hear about how you restored your luger.

Below is an example of a 1916 Navy Luger with two crown M stamps. I didn't have any markings on the front frame other than the serial number.
