well, you are on the right track- and mind you , for a practice and plinkin piece, if you grab yerself a ruger mark II you have a good practice platform that will indoctronate you to gun ownership and transfer well to a luger- I hit this point again as it is generally accepted doctrine taht if you are gonna own a gun, you should shoot it, and nothing is better to train on than a .22- and the mark 2 was inspired by the luger after all.... and it is not expensive, nor is its ammo or magazines- a very important point as while starting ut you will want to shoot a lot to build proficiency- while you practice shooting with that, you can read up on lugers and / or mausers- antique arms is a fascinating subject, and thanks to teh interwebs, we have a plethora of available info on care, handling , repair and the various quirks of these weapons..... try a google search on them, and that can start you on the right track- also, be patient- a buddy of mine picked up a 1917 dated luger in very good condition for 400 bucks- really the exception and not the rule, but still possible if you bide your time and shop around.....
