My spin, for whatever it's worth, is that this one, unless I missed a mismatched part, is definitely collectable and probably should enjoy the rest of time being looked at, not fired.
As per its value, you can search 1917 Artillery Lugers on Simpsons, Ltd. website to get some idea of high end retail.
I'd think it should bring in the neighborhood of $3k or a bit more, but it is a bit specialized so let's see what other brave souls have to say on the subject.
Of course all estimates are academic while cash in hand speaks volumes.
