Looks like I'm alone in my opinion, however I would still at least test fire it. Maybe not shoot it often, as others stated I would have a "shooter" Luger for most trips to the range, but I would still have to put a mag through it once in a while. I don't buy any gun that I either can't shoot or would be afraid to shoot. I am diligent about ammo quality, careful in transporting/storing, and spend a lot of time cleaning after a range trip.

If you do decide to shoot your '39, definitely don't use old, possibly corrosive ammo. I would not use new production cheap steel case stuff either. Recommend S&B 9mm. Their 8mm Mauser 196gr FMJ is also excellent, as well as boxer-primed if you reload.
