I havent tried loading it yet for this reason. Maybe I will make it to the range in the next few days.

It is a little disconcerting to insert a loaded magazine into a gun and have it automatically chamber a round. I have never personally had an AD with a Mauser, but I did have one with a Webley & Scott .38 automatic, which had a similar system. It was a test fire on an unproven gun, so I had it pointed straight at the bullet trap.
Your Mauser looks to be in very nice condition, so I doubt that you will have any problems, but better safe than sorry.
