Quit the parts mix Military Engineer
The double straight eagle/63 and mid era Nazi proofs marks are correct for a 1938 Luger.
The Erfurt toggle is an add on/repair and off a much older Luger.
The grips are not from this 1938 gun and may be from a BW, which this gun is not.

As long as it all works it could be a good shooter but make sure you check the bore and have a good look around for cracks anywhere on the gun before firing.

No ... it would not bother me and since its a shooter the pitting is easily fixed if it bothers you that much

Just my humble opinion so don't shoot the messenger please
