Also, on a related note, a fresh rust blue will appear a little brighter than a duller original rust blue. If a rust blued Luger shines a little more than normal even though the polish marks are rough, it is probably been recently rust blued. A strong light might also be a give away to original vs recent bluing depending on how long ago it was done. Modern Salt bluing usually has a destinct BLACK look to it.
