If it were me, I would buy a 100-rd box of Wal-Mart Winchester 'White Box' 115gr 'Target' ammunition, shoot two magazines worth and then clean it up good, oil it, and take it out occasionally and cycle it fondly...Like I do with mine...  |
I am in NC. It is hard to find firearms anywhere, let alone a Luger. I have always wanted a Luger (too many WWII movies with my grandpa I guess).
