I also have recently purchased a Luger, a DWM
made in 1910. I fired it for the first time last
Friday. I only fired 10 rounds but function was
perfect even with a mis-matched magazine. The ammo I used was Mag-Tec 115 gr. FMJ.

The recoil seemed stronger than the same ammo fired in my Glock 19 but not a problem. POA was
about 2 inches high at 25 yds.

As for the sites, I believe that are intended for
use at longer ranges than is normal today. They do not hide the target. At close range, you would only use the front site or just point and fire.
I know this is true of other guns of the past and
may well be true for the Luger as well.

Any way, it sure was fun!!!!
