An inherited 20's Commercial - too little headspace?

Rob, the standard line is "take it to a gunsmith and let them check it for safety".

With Lugers (and I am no expert on things like this), the barrel and the extractor have to be lined up, so unless you have a mismatched barrel or mismatched or damaged breechblock, then its hard toget out of whack.

I have never tried a no/no go gauge on any luger I have fired, although I'm more of a collector than a shooter anymore.
