Refinishing a Luger

[ronin]

Herb, you�´re my kind of guy.

Your gun story is worth reading and does show how fond you�´re of that beast. It�´s been through hell and back more than once and yet still you care and have time for her.

My guns are not exceptional but i do fall in love with them time and again. And i stick to them as much as possible.

I�´m not sure there are so many Lugers around so i�´m likely to give one a permanent address and that�´ll be the end of it unless i find a reputable gunsmith to reblue it with extreme care and dedication (when i can get the doe for it) and eventually if fortune smiles at me i might send some parts to the US for strawing and other finishing touches but i can�´t see that hapening in the near future. I�´d love to have something shootable that also pleases the eye.

Still, let me get back to the original question. Reblueing the Luger does require any particular care or is it just a simple job that anyone familiar with the process might do without ruining the gun?
