mauser pistol from 1972 mint condition.

Shooting original ammunition is a testament of stupidity, really:

-Steel cased, iron core ammunition is not suitable for most indoor firing ranges (in fact, steel core ammunition is actually not allowed at all on Dutch firing ranges).
-WW2 ammunition has a collector's value that is about double, triple or multiple times the value of normal commercial ammunition.
-WW2 steel cased ammunition can be rotted through from the inside due to bad storage.
-WW2 ammunition is harder on the gun, less reliable and downright dangerous in some circumstances.
