Is it ok to get a $2000 Luger... then shoot it often?

I was a shoot 'em all guy til the day I blew up a CYQ P38.
Slide and locking block ruint.

I don't mind a bunch of safe queens-they good trading stock if nothing else.
I grew up in the 50s around some old time collectors with lots of original matchlocks, flinters, etc.

I learned the concept that some pieces are relics and antiques and that there is no reason to mess with them.

To this day I will not **** or open the action of an old piece without permission.
A serious collector ought to catalog and value estimate his stuff.

A stupid burdon on survivors.
