Basic question from new luger owner

Now that I've cooled off, I'll probably leave it alone. My Luger wears what remains of the 1920-era rework finish, which appears to me to be rust blue, although the inside of the frame is blued. It has not been vigorously buffed, and really has a nice patina, so I guess I'll leave it alone. What really makes it a shooter is that someone in the past forced-matched some numbers on it, and it has an Erfurt sideplate (it's a DWM).
