Hello Everyone,

I might be trading my Garand for this Luger, what are your opinions on it? Is the Bluing original? Other than the ugly ding on the side it looks OK to me. Any thoughts on it?

All comments and opinions are appreciated.

From here, the finish looks like it has the typical wear marks from being holstered. The barrel doesn't seem to show as much wear as usual.

Do the serial numbers match on the internal parts too?

It's an otherwise good one, except being sanded.

Thanks for your thoughts, yes all parts match, so I'm told. But it is starting to look like I won't be getting this one

I wouldn't trade my Garand for that Luger. Condition is not real good. You also have to consider what Garand you have and its condition.
