One might consider having the strawed parts blued in order to make its configuration something consistent with how it was born. But any Luger is a wonder to behold, and if you're more worried about shooting it than the finer points, then it's already good to go, and should make a dandy shooter that has a touch of collectibility and no shortage of charm. As a bonus, its out-of-kilter flat surfaces can turn the conversation to a cautionary tale about how less is sometimes more when it comes to Luger refinishing.
