Default Restoration

Hello one and all! Where do I begin? I just bought my first P08 and I need to research the gun to determine need for repair and restoration. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks

Welcome Stuart.

Is there something wrong with your luger?

To see what you have and if it needs restoration, how about some info; make, model, markings, bluing, etc.

Description and pictures would help a lot.

Ed

Thank you Ed. Truth is that I have not seen it yet. It will arrive next week and I will tell you more then with pics I hope. I can tell you it is a DWM with a 1921 chamber date and 9mm. I bought it from a friend who used it as a shooter. I'm not positive but I STRONGLY suspect it has been re-blued. I have found so much info, I was looking for a place to start my quest and I believe I have found an excellent starting place here. Thanks again, Stuart
