Hi Bill,
While this is true, I have to say that I've never seen the plum color on a refinished gun.

Norn,

I had my father's 22cal rifle and his single barrel 410 shotgun refinished a number of years ago, and both came out with plum colored parts....I was sorely disappointed!! These were not Lugers, but the metal is of early 1900s vintage.
