According to Jan Still and his WEIMAR LUGERS & THIRD REICH LUGERS, Mauser RUST BLUED Lugers from the 1930 time frame in the "v" block until 1937 in the "t" block. Those Lugers will have strawed small parts the inside portions of the inside the frame top and magazine well polished. This interior polishing to the white steel stopped according to Still after the "n" block in 1936.
If you see a DWM, SIMSON, or ERFURT Luger with a Mauser BUMP on the frame it is a mismatch Luger and has been worked on or reassembled from parts of several guns. Another way to keep from getting taken on a reblue is to
