engine degreaser is a soap like substance that if sprayed on a warm engine and allowed to sit a few minutes will allow much sludge to be rinsed off under high pressure water. That just doesn't seem to be a procedure I would want to perform on a Luger... You could never be sure you got all the moisture out of the crevices in the assembled gun.
Brake cleaner on the other hand is a high powered cleaner that cuts through most substances and it evaporate completely in a couple of minutes... that is the way I would go and then be generous with the lubricant on your precious Luger. I would use Breakfree CLP for the lube. CAVEAT: DO NOT GET BRAKE CLEANER ON ANYTHING MADE OF WOOD, PLASTIC OR BAKELITE (Like grips)... You would be very sorry that you did. just my $0.02
