Phosphate Finish??

Herb · 11-06-2003, 04:17 PM

While visiting another forum I saw a picture that was posted by a P38 owner of a pistol that was half blued half phosphate finished, which I gather was not all that uncommon for a P38. I have a Mauser 1939/42 ser# 3786v that, to me, appeares to look the same. I wouldn't know what a phosphate finish looked like having never seen one. It, the finish, certainly does not look like blueing though. Does anyone know if this phosphate finish was ever tried on a Luger? I hope the picture shows it clearly
