By now, I've seen a number of Lugers with this bluing appearance. I am not sure why the normally deep bluing isn't present on these guns. Wrong surface preparation, solution temperature, chemical mixture, bath timing?

I posted pictures of my translucent blued 1939 (from the "r" block) when I first acquired it:
