Did the newb screw up?

I am the ultimate Luger NON-EXPERT. While I can appreciate the historical significance of the gun, I know very little when it comes to a "great deal" or a fraud. Despite this ignorance, I search various sites pretty religiously looking for reasonably priced Luger's. I'm pretty selective and don't want a mismatched "Frankenstein". After many months of searching, I have been unable to find a Luger which called my name...until yesterday.

With less then 15 minutes left in the auction and an already acceptable bid, I found the following:

With no time to think or reconsider, I punched the "Buy it Now" button. I am now the proud owner of a Luger; but is it one I should hide in my safe or proudly share at the range? Don't hold back - if I was duped, I deserve to be embarrassed.
