We try it from the beginning then.
I really like the Luger as a targetpistol, but the gun is to light and I needed to make another solution for the rear toggle.

So first is here the turning and chambering of the barre.

I really wanted an adjustable sight, and previously I have seen that no adjustable sights really seems to survive the violence on the rear toggle in the long run.
So here is the new manufacured toggle.
Starting with a piece of Uddeholm Calmax steel hardened to 50 HRC.
Hardening is done in a furnace in 960 degrees celcius.

This luger was a bit sloppy so I pressed it a bit tighter in the vise. To not overpress it I placed some gaugeblocks in the frame.

Triggerpull.
Many lugers have their triggerpulls destroyed by wrong adjustments.
So I usally weld up the sear and the firing pin with hardened steel and blueprint them to specifications.

Some triggerpins fits rather poorly, so I decided to change the fit of it.

The frame with it's stocklug is much nicer if the stocklugg is removed. So here is the stocklugg removed and welded shut.
Frame gets 30 lpi checkering on both front and rear strap.
