Welcome Derek,
You have a standard German Army issue that is the 9799th Luger produced by DWM in 1916 (no suffix letter under the SN). It appears to be all original with I'm gonna say about 92% finish remaining and it has all of its original parts, at least what can be seen from the outside. Bore diameter is 8.82 mm. If you take the upper off, you can check the numbers on the : trigger, breechblock, firing pin, holdopen spring, and grip panels. I bet they match. Very nice undamaged walnut grips - well the left one is, you didn't show us the right grip.
Your gun is common but very collectible. It has enough wear on it that you don't need to baby it - just keep it oiled inside and out and it will last another 100 years. Very nice heirloom. It will never go down in value, and you can always shoot it if the %&#! hits the fan.
What numbers are on your magazines? A lot of us are looking to trade for certain numbers.
