Luger 1936 S42 question

chris69 · 12-18-2009, 08:25 PM

Here it is one of my prime Luger's. One of the serious collectors on J.C Still forum called "mostly a re-blue." I would like to find out any indications of this gun being reblued.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Kris

I think the word "GESICHERT" at the safety switch should be in white lettering.

Softening of the edges and those horizontal lines are often formed from a buffing wheel.
