Steel wool! WE uses a shitty paint that can easily be lifted on their AR's. But there is still a layer beneath where the paint has actually cured. You can use superfine steel wool to lift off the crappy stuff and get that faded look.
With the luger though you'll need to strip the paint off of the gun and use Birchwood Casey Aluminum Blackener to darken the metal. I'd do a mixture of that, 'wearing' with steel wool, and polishing to get that aged look.
