New Luger owner any tips?

Need better pictures of the serial #'s on front of frame and bottom of barrel. Pictures of all other visible markings would also help. Preferably in natural light. Could be a Russian capture, won't know until more pics are posted. You picked the right ammo, that is the preferred ammo for Lugers and I have always had luck with that brand. I don't know if I would have shot it without disassembling first and giving it a good look,just MHO. Also if it is all matching and original finish most guys would be a little hesitant about shooting it as it is more collectible, but do what you want it's your pistol but if not sure post the pics and wait for more comments and see what the other members have to say. Thanks for posting and welcome aboard!
