A lot of Luger folks feel that a "real shooter" is a Luger that has minimal collector value and that collector Lugers should be preserved because they aren't easy to come by. Your Luger is very close to brand new in condition and is probably better than 90% of the 1920 Commercials in existance. There are also those folks that won't own a gun unless they can shoot it...and I can't argue with that position either. I will say that if you break a matching part while shooting it, it will never be a collector item again. It can go from a $1400-$1500 gun to a $500-$600 gun in an instant. But it is yours to do with as you wish. E-mail me at
rwood1@elp.rr.com if you would like to let me know what the "right conditions" are for the sale of your magazine. Thanks
