Welcome, and if you plan to shoot it, you may not want to mention it here

Apparently you've got quite a nice Luger, I'd like to see some close up pictures but from your words it could be a collectible.
You can shoot it of course, BUT, please consider that it only takes one round for something unforeseen to occur, and the monetary and historical value may plummet like a rock, it's your choice.

Best regards.

You might want to explain why, instead of just a cryptic comment.

A new guy is not going to get your "sarcasm", JMHO.

Yes, my bad, the point is many of us feel collector grade Lugers should not be fired for fear of breaking a numbered part.

Hope you enjoy your stay here on the forum.
