Thanks for the answers. Here are some pictures. I'm not very good with close-ups

That's *unmachined*???
![]() That one is ripe for finishing... You sure none of those holes are drilled??? If that's a casting, it's pretty close to being finished...if it's a forging, it's like 95% finished... On a related note: Did the German mfg's machine from forgings, billets, or just plain steel slabs??? |

Kinda neat just the way it is... If you ever want to sell it, let me know, I'd never finish it, but would really like to study it...
... BTW, I think Luger frames started out as a rough forging, receivers also..... as far as I know, all of them from early to late Mauser?? I'm sure, they could cast a 95% net finished frame today.. but it would REALLY cost'ya! best to all, til....lat'r....GT
