Just follow the advice you've already been given about cleaning the piece, and DO NOT have it re-blued.

Disassembly of the Pistole 08 isn't 'that' difficult - but if it's intimidating, then carefully remove the wooden grips, open the action - and spray something like 'Break-Free' inside - to wash any accumulated detritus away.

Let drain well - or blow it out with an air hose - re-install the grips and you can put it away for her.

Vaya,

Send a PM.

If you're using something that fills in pitting - what are you using?

You really are going to want disassemble the toggle assembly and remove the firing pin.  You would be amazed at how much gunk can build up in there over time.
