I read in one of the older Luger books that DWM hung the Luger parts by wire in the factory urinal to obtain that beautiful blue/black on their guns. If true, then there is your bluing solution right there--just start collecting it. I don't know if you have to drink German beer to get the right formula or not!!!

I vaguely recall reading that the ancient Japanese sword makers also used various kinds of urine to quench their swords when heat treating/tempering...
