Wayne;

I have the name of a guy in Texas that did some restoration work on one of my Navy Lugers. The work he did was excellent, but he didn't know Lugers as well as I thought he did. When I get home I'll send you his contact information you can check with him on availability (it took quite a while to get the work done on the Navy, 6 mos I think). I recommend that you talk with him and then go over each piece of the gun and review what finish you want on it. When he did the Navy he didn't know the 200 sight marking should have been left in the white and not blued. There were also some stampings that had been buffed off that he didn't replace. I was surprized when I had this done that it was not as expensive as I thought it would be. He did a lot of re-contouring on the frame and receiver as it looked like the gun had been buffed and re-blued more than once.

Thanks,
Bob M.
