Could you explain that??? I read the linked thread, and looked at the pics...but what is "aged 98%"???

Yes simply put ! Instead of the gun being restored to 100%.It was slightly aged to look as a luger with 98% of its finish remaining.

Wouldn't this aged thing happen anyway with a well-used shooter?

I would guess so! But its not really a well used shooter.The finish is right around 25 years old now.I have noticed is has changed slightly after 25 years.The color and look is slighly different than when first done
