build a Luger - mfgs. parts interchangability

Hi Dwight,

No, the frame was beaded and blued when I bought it. I sent the top half to Ted, because it had to be tig welded to to fill in some gouges on the receiver. I've been practicing my rust bluing skills on small parts and beaters. Mainly to experiment with getting different tints and hues.

Getting ready to rust blue a "98 Mauser Sporter 30-06 that I've had for a while. If it turns out well I might start doing Lugers.
