Would like to buy my first luger!

Is the Stainless Steel American Eagle Stoeger Luger available in the 1990's a decent shooter?

I really appreciate the distinctive one of a kind look of the luger, but I would really like to have the most reliable shooter available. Am I better off with one of the early ones, between the wars one, or a ww2 one, or a post war police gun or something like Stoeger american eagles?

I would hate to buy one and then have to spend several hundred dollars for a gunsmith repair just because I fired 50 or so rounds a year.

And what should I look for in a reliable shooter? Smooth bore, obvious signs of rust,wear and abuse, obviously. Anything else?

Still chilly in Greensboro, NC!
