Should I "Plink" with my inherited Luger?

Burke,

Howdy, glad to see a young collector.

Check out this link about broken parts while shooting for an idea about shooting. I suggest putting on a set of aftermarket grips as well, being -very careful- about taking off the left-hand grip.

Actually, depending on its condition, the Artillery may be a better candidate for shooting. Unless it is rusted enough to be dangerous, the rust may reduce its collector value enough to consider shooting it.

Lugers are terrific to shoot, and shooting an LP-08 is a real hoot, particularly with a stock. I have one Luger I reserve for shooting, somewhat more than you plan on.

Your Lugers sound interesting, what are all the details? Does the stock match your Aartillery?
