Family find of 1908 Commercial Army Luger

Brad, keep a good gun oil on the metal. Make sure you keep the gun oil off of the wood. If it were mine, I would remove the original grips and get a set of reproduction wood grips to keep on it for handling. Preserve those originals in the condition they are in... A good furniture wax would be okay for the the wood. Apply it lightly and buff it off with a soft clean lint free cloth...

I am green with envy over your family heirloom. Congrats and good luck. Now you need to find you a "shooter"
