Apparently there are some early 1937 S42's that have rust blue and streawed small parts. However I believe all the 1938 lugers were salt blued and no straw.According to Hallock and van de Kants Mauser book all the 1938's were salt blued and therefore no strawed parts. I am sure our Mauser experts will be on here. Bill __________________ Bill Lyon
