Default Idpa?

Hello,

I have this wild idea of shooting a Luger in IDPA. The problem is, though I've always had an affinity for Lugers, I don't have one and don't really know anything about them. I'd be looking for a reliable shooter, a few mags, some replacement parts (like springs, I guess). I wouldn't campaign with the gun, I'd just do it occasionally for grins.

Anybody ever done anything like this? Anybody got a good candidate shooter for sale? What about sights? What do I need to know about ammo (my normal 9mm load is a 147 CMJ that does about 875 fps out of a 1911)? What do I don't even know I don't know?

If this is ridiculous, at least be entertained.

Thanks.

I have shot International Pistol Shooting Association events

with a 1917 Artillery Luger. It was for fun and I enjoyed it.

I used 115 gr Winchester ammo with FXO Luger mags which

are reliable.
