Hi George and welcome to the forum.
Do download a copy of our FAQ document. It has quite a bit of useful reference material collected over the years at this forum.
If you want a shooter Luger, look for something that was properly assembled by a qualified person familiar with Lugers and their action. This could be a factory gun with finish issues, or a properly fitted gun with mixed parts.
Make sure that it actually does function properly.
You may find some available that have been Russian Capture and armory refitted. Many of these can be good shooters.
My shooter is an all matching Mauser 1937 vintage Luger with finish issues. I like the later Mauser pistols for shooting.
You'll want a 9mm pistol since .30 Luger is more expensive to shoot.
Marc
