Default Shoot or not to shoot.

OK, I'm brand new to Luger pistols. I purchased one for my firearm collection. It is in great condition, all #'s matching, no import marks, and has a receiver stamp of 1917. Basically a garden variety Luger as far as I know. I have not fired it as yet. I would like too just for the record. Another Luger collector told me that when he shot his, the extractor broke. His extractor was number matching and he was'nt happy. I was thinking about installing an aftermarket extractor, and then shooting the pistol. If the new extractor broke, then not so bad, as I would still have my #'s matching part. What about proper ammo selection? I would certainly appreciate any comments from persons who know more about Lugers than I. Thanks in advance. LS
