Congratulations on your first Luger.
Your comment, "I also am looking to acquire other Lugers", is the best self-instruction ever.
Put the $1,200 or so it would take for a first-rate reconstruction of this pistol into a kitty as seed money for your next Luger, take the time to figure out what you really want for a first-rate collectible Luger.
In the meantime, use this pistol as a study piece while reading the Forum and whatever source books you may have access to. Also, take it shooting. Pick up a Mec-Gar magazine, and perhaps a pair of VoPo (East German) plastic grips, and have a great deal of fun.
