Default 1914 Erfurt Artillery Luger

One of my recent restorations. The Luger had previously been refinished with a mirror black Darth Vader type finish. I returned it to a Rust Blue finish. Interesting front sight blade. hm....

As always, excellent work.
Any chance of a closeup of the front sight?

Beautiful. Returning a badly refinished Erfurt Artillery to near original condition has to be satisfying.
