Default Thor: A true master artist

Greetings,
The oldest Luger in my collection is a 7.65mm 1906 American Eagle. It has special meaning to me because it was my first Luger; acquired sometime in the early 60's. It is special in another way, as it was given to me by the then Chef Deputy of our Sheriff dept. It was not in very good conditon. The finish had mostly turned to a grey patina color, the grips were worn and the main spring was very weak. I recently sent the Luger to Thor for a new life. I was more than pleased with the results. As you can see, it looks like it did in the early 1900's. I would highly recommend Thor to anyone who needs a firearm restored. His email address: Thor340@aol.com. Here is what the Luger looks like now.

Mike
