Marc,

I was talking about the rails on the 'receiver' part, not the lug.

So it seems 1936-37 rust blued have the 'receiver' inside and rails blued - Fascinating!
I never heard this before. I have seen some 36-37 Lugers like that but I assumed they were refinished. I'll have to stop ruling them out. Thanks for the lesson.

I'm not sure I would agree with the comment about the interior of frame being all rust blue, because your gun is obviously in the white in the picture, and so are several others I have seen. Maybe the 36-37 frames can legitimately be blue or white inside?
