I have actually gotten a Luger sent to my FFL receiver assembled incorrectly. A 'gunsmith' would likely know how to examine a Luger, but actual 'gunsmiths' are a dying breed [literally].
These days, every gun shop owner thinks he is a 'smith', but most only rack the toggle and pull the trigger and pronounce it "shootable".
This old, it should have someone familiar with Lugers check it over, meaning a fairly deep disassembly and inspection of parts prone to breakage that may not be visible from a cursory examination (firing pin spring guide for instance).
