My Luger

Noooo..don't replace the barrel! you'll destroy half (or more) of the value of the gun. 30cal Lugers are usually more reliable than the 9mms, given the bottlenecked cartridge feeds smoother. Find a GOOD gunsmith who knows Lugers (search Lugerdoc on here). The easiest way to tell if your Luger is a very early model is by the toggles...the 1900 models have a scalloped (dished out) shape, where later guns have a full donut shaped toggle....see my post of today.
