Getting a Luger Home...?

Okay, maybe it may be too simplistic; but here goes :


You have found a luger in person or on an auction site and finally get it home for inspection.


Okay, now what ???


Now what do you look for to make sure it's authentic, original finish, matching parts, etc. ?


Hoping some of the Forum "expereinced hands" can put a check-list of your methodologies together. I understand each type of luger is different and has its own unique features and characteristics...


But your check-lists would help some of us novices...
