In my collection of Lugers I have one chrome plated. I also have the capture paperwork on it and the vet I purchased it from told me many of the troops did have them chrome plated as war trophies. They didn't care about resale value or keeping them original at the time. A chrome or nickel plated one has little value other then a shooter unless you have the provenance to go along with the weapon.

" German stuff"
Blood does have salt so it will destroy the blue on the metal . If it was from a real veteran who took it off a german soldier he would have it chromed like it was because at that time around after the war there were hundreds of thousands of these were coming back to the U.S. as war trophies and did not know the value of them 60 plus years later.This combat veteran who ever had it wanted to preserve the memory as it was probably an 18 year old Infantry Soldier who had captured it.
