Here is an old Luger that needed a face lift. I am always scratching my head wondering how they were stored or what they went through to get this way. This one has the bluing stripped off and it just prior to metal prep stage. Sometimes the pitting is locallized like maybe where hands held the gun or where it was keep in a holster for a long time and the chemicals in the leather did contribute to some of the pitting, but sometimes you just wonder what happened to these beautiful guns, a shame!
