I shoot mine...
I take my all matching Navy out and shoot it once or twice a year. But before I do, I swap out the extractor and firing pin, (The commonly broken parts), with non-matching spares, and re-install them after I clean it up. And I make sure it is well lubricated. It has a hole in the end of the barrel, that's where the bullet comes out. The Germans weren't afraid to shoot them.... I'm pretty sure I'll get flamed for this post.
