Good eye, Rich, and probably memory, too. I thought I recognized the profile of that front sight...

At $200, I, like you, would have grabbed it up in a heartbeat. You can NEVER lose your money at that price!! You did great, and I will venture that many/most of the folks on this forum would have done exactly what you did.....purchase the Luger. Congrats

Had it looked over by my gunsmith and got the all-clear. Now i have to track down some ammo. He also confirmed that its chambered for 30 Luger.

You did very well at $200, the left grip plate doesn't look like it has the million dollar chip and from what I could see they both looked good, and if the mag looks decent you probably got nearly your $200 just there.
Steve,

I'm surprised you haven't bought a lottery ticket as well. That's a fun gun at $200!

Well I finally got some 30 luger ammo and took it out back. It shoots fine and ejects the spent shell but doesn't want to **** when it reloads the next. Any ideas on this? is it more likely to be an ammo issue or a mechanism problem? nothing looked worn or misshaped when i took it back apart to clean. Thanks!

What ammo did you try in your Luger? Can you reset the striker(firing pin) manually with the mag out and an empty chamber? What main/recoil spring (wt.) is installed in the Luger? Is the plunger on the end of the trigger bar moving freely? A lot of possibilities here.
