Luger I found... PRISTINE

[saxman]

So, nobody but me can see the brown under the blue in the RH side frame 'ear' or the green corrosion in the nickel magazine tube at the front edge of the follower? Some rust is also starting in the toggle joints. This is an incredible Luger, and the only brand new one I've ever seen photos of. I had learned, of course, that they didn't rust blue the inside surfaces of the frame, and I wonder if that was because it would be difficult to card the 'rust' on the inside, or perhaps because the beauty of the bright machined surfaces was enhanced by the deep gray-blue of the finish. Whatever, a brand new pre-war Luger is indeed a sight to behold.
