Default First time Luger owner VERY happy

Hello all,

I just bought this P08 9mm Luger. I know its a Mauser, and from 1936.

Yes, I know the nickle plating and the grips are not original and that drastically decreases the value, but as far as I can see after I tore it down, all the numbers match and bore looks pretty darn nice. The magazine is also not original.

I have always wanted one and am fond of nickle plating so.... I pulled the trigger!

Can anyone help me fill in the blanks? I am sure the emblems on the grips are the National party symbol, added by someone later on. The proof marks? The Suffix?

How about ammo for it? Any suggestions? I also reload, and need thoughts on a good load.

I have attached some pictures so maybe people can chip in with any information about it!

Jeff
