Thought I would re-post Dwight's excellent starter-thread on rating a luger's original finish. I think it a good topic for discussion and thought it might be lost in its original posting location (dealing with a gun's dollar- valuation question) :

" I think that this Forum could do with a discussion of just what visual (pictured) condition equates to what percentage (%) condition.

I am not going to dispute anyone else's assessment here, and I am frankly not confident enough of my own percentage assessment ability to judge the Luger pictured above. I will note that comparison of this Luger with the sample pictures in the Fjestad "Blue Book" shows it at 80% or less compared to that scale.

I look forward to the discussion.
