Paul, from the EXTREMELY limited information you've provided, my best guess (and it's only a guess) is that you have one of the very common post-WW1 DWM commercial Lugers in .30 caliber.
The early commercial Lugers didn't have the stock lug. Commercial serial number 5011 would have been used long before 1906. The 1906 model Lugers had a grip safety. You could, I suppose, have a rework of a 1904 model Navy Luger which would have the stock lug. The rework would also have been post-WW1.
As Wes suggested above.... good, clear, sharp pictures would help a great deal as well as an explaination of ALL markings on the pistol and barrel length. Is the pistol marked "Germany" anywhere? Is there a small letter under the serial number on the front of the frame? You must help us with more detail if we're to help you.
No matter what you have, $298 is a fantastic price! You did very well indeed.
