The gun is in decent condition but the mis-match does put it in the shooter category. But wait, there's more! (My Billy Mays pitch!). The magazines look to be in outstanding condition so they are worth at least $!25+ each. The holster has the combination tool in the little pouch. If it is an original (and I suspect it is) that is another $75-$150 depending on condition and markings (determines how rare it is). The holster looks pretty good although the magazine pouch appears a little ragged at the top in the one photo. A better photo of that area would help in evaluating but at a minimum it is worth around $100 and probably more. So you have around $400 worth of accessories in addition to the gun that is worth an honest $700. Value-wise you aren't doing too bad!
Most folks recommend good old Winchester white box ammo that is fairly easy to obtain. Look in the FAQ section and you will find lots of info on disassembly/assembly and cleaning.
Good luck and enjoy your Luger.
