I have the chance pick up a German 41 P08 luger through a trade. While the thought alone excites me i dont what rush into anything... She has been chromed and its chipping a bit it really needs to removed and re-blued/rust blued. Now with the dangers and environmental issues with the toxic "Hexavalent chromium" probably should leave this to the professionals. Is there anyone in Indiana and or surrounding area that will remove the chrome and brass platings from a firearm? And if thats too much of a issue who has media blasted chrome and chemically stripped the brass off and what where you results? Sense its such a collectible firearm i'm hesitant to use a blaster, i would hate to damage any of the proofs and stampings... I understand that sense she been chromed she never going to be a 2k safe queen but do want to increase its value but still be a weekend shooter.
