I respectfully submit that Lugers have a reputation for being extremely accurate, and that's all I'll say about that!
While you are not necessrily "hurting" the pistol by firing it, you are risking the damage or breakage of a numbered, matching part, which would literally cut your pistol's value in half.
If your pistol is an all-matching rig, (both magazines have the same number as the gun)? It would be almost criminal in certain collector's eyes to break a matching part on so rare an assemblage.
Please don't shoot it until we know more!!
