Refinishing usually cost up to same $$$ than a allready refinished Luger so I guess thats not worth it.
Mine was a bit pitted and i cleaned up the spots with a sharp razor blade. (actually a lot of them) Just take care to cut the rust carefully of, not scrape it of. Doing so you wont scratch the blueing.
Then maybe you could use a cold blue and 1000 steel woll to fresh up the finish and then add thin layer of gun grease over it.
Then wipe of the excess of the grease and polish the gun with a sylicon cloth.
Mine turned up to be a real beuty after this method and the guy who sold it to me hardly recogniced it afterwards.

btw. I would be interested to know how the cast bullet hand loads work for you and maybe the recipe, as I,m going on the same path as soon as I get the molds.
