All my Lugers were bought as shooters; each one has an issue which eliminates it from the worries involved with its being a pure collectible. So, I have a "collection" of shooters. You can tinker with them,change barrels, install .22 conversion kits for shooting, put on some outrageous grips, etc.

I admire the collectors who make an investment and stick to it by not firing it. It takes fortitude NOT to shoot such a beautiful machine, which--by the way--was made to be shot! Now that I'm stocked up with a variety of variations to play with, I'll keep an eye open for a collectable one. Sadly, stuff like your Navy is out of reach for now, since I've, ahem, used up all my dough by buying shooters...
