Hello All!
I have recently acquired an all matching BYF, 41 dated luger.
Now, the story is that this gun was a bringback and was nickel plated almost immediately.
I used a Caswell Nickel stripper, which worked partially. So expressing my animosity for nickel, I vigorously scrubbed the frame with a piece of steel wool. I then noticed that the yellowish nickel finish has turned a dark grey-ish color. I began to continue until the whole gun was grey, looking closely at the last traces of nickel, I noticed that I had revealed what seems to be remnants of the original finish.
The serial is 2291, byf 41.
My question is, can I trace this pistol? Can anyone tell me more about the pistol? I know that it's 9mm, German etc. I am seeking information in regards to tracking the origin of this pistol.
