Also need to build up the nerve to tackle it.
Only got one pinched finger. Some 000 steel wool and the out side looks a lot better that it did. Actually better than most I've seen that were in the same condition as mine. I did find out that the grips match the gun serial number. I was glad to see that since so many grips are replaced.
Everything got a thin coat of oil. I should/will post pictures of the cleaned pistol.
You've inspired me to dig out my Finnish Contract m/23 Luger and have a go cleaning it up with some 00 steel wool.



Keep me occupied tomorrow morning anyway.
