>> should I be concerned much about putting rounds this this firearm?

You want to know it works or not. A clip will tell you.

There was a "Luger Story" small booklet, written by John Walter, talked about Luger's history. There was a 1920 chapter. At full speed, DWM wartime production could create 800 Lugers per day. In 1920s, they suffered due to huge production capacity vs tiny market demand.

If your Luger is not refinished, it appears to be in excellent, original condition. If it also has matching numbers, I wouldn't shoot it, because if you break a numbered part, you'll be kicking yourself later. Bill
