White Markings or No?

I do not.

I will even ask an Owner to remove it from a gun if I am serious about buying it and he/she has seen the color of my money.

The only in-fill on my Lugers is the stuff done originally at the factory for the thumb safety markings....where applicable on various models and makes. That stuff is usually a more permanent enamel paint of some sort that sometimes ages yellow with time.

Of course I would not ask a seller to remove that in-fill.

As others have mentioned on the LF, a gun with in-fill everywhere and an seller not willing to removed it for inspection of the stampings below might be well a gun passed by...and your money left in your pockets.
