Thanks to Everyone
Talked to Dad this morning and the gun is exactly the way he got it in '44. I know the photos are not great but I am looking at it now more closely and there is no indication of any blueing anywhere. The finish, barrel to frame is consistent. Only the trigger plate has a different appearance. There is still some slight strawing on the left side of the trigger. The mag# is 6940(+).
I am now assuming that we should NOT have it blued? And can anyone tell that I don't have a clue what I am doing but fast becoming a lugerhead. Many thanks again, you guys are amazing.
