Thor There is no doubt you are the best in the business !!!

I would like to see a closeup photo of the inside of both grips on this pistol, as it appears in the one photo where the grip has been removed that these may not be original grips but reproduction grips...

If it doesn't matter to the owner, then it is of no consequence, but if originality in your restoration is what you are looking for, let us see the grips so we can make a determination on their originality...

Just noticed the Black Widow Luger picture shows a byf/42 Mauser with the WRONG magazine type, oh well, still like the picture anyway!

looks chromed, nickel has a yellowish look to it

I concur ^
Also I might add, it's actually quite a looker in my opinion... for a chrome/nickel luger anyway.
Most of them are quite rough and haggard these days, but it's not in too bad of shape from the looks of things.
