First Luger Buy "almost" completed - but concerns

Thanks so much for getting back to me so quickly!! The opportunity just came up today and he is eager to buy something else in the next few days.
He has no receipt, no capture papers. Never saw anything like that for my Uncle's 1911 either. I know a local police officer and may ask him to check it for me, also have a friendly local gun shop. Can't do any of that on a Sunday evening so I just may get cold feet when my neighbor comes over later. I think he has another guy who also wants it so I will probably miss it if I don't take a gamble on it. Very likely that it has been sitting around since before registration started in the 60's but the possibility that it may have been stolen is a big worry for me.
Thanks again for taking your time to help me out. This is definitely a first-class forum.
