I believe a 1916 DWM luger can be an excellent choice for a shooter.
I see extractors and ejectors as expendable and replaceable parts in a shooter; along with springs and grips.



I have a half dozen WW1 shooters. I also have also experienced 100% of my breakage on them. Expense? Extractors, ejectors, bolts..all kind of spendy saying nothing about traveling to a range for several hours of shooting only to have expensive parts fly off. THEN if you are NOT a Luger mechanic..you have another expensive trip to a gunsmith.

I guess really one could say a late Swiss might be the best shooter..less likely to break. But Luger's DO break and WW1 Luger's in my experience break a LOT more frequently that most people think.

You would think an "anal" person could see the logic of my position! Course I ain't blaming the Author of my days. I own it all.
