I do have a few original PO8 trigger levers left in stock, but the interior angle formed by the legs mag vary, so these are not always interchangable, so you may want to have a lugersmith install it in your side plate and assure that the movement is sufficient to allow your sear to release the striker.

Thank you!

I am going to test the pistol today, and if it functions I will call it "fixed". I think I was bitten by the next to last person who had the sideplate off, and I don't think things were put back correctly. I had the sideplate off to do a clean and lube after purchase, and I didn't futz with the sideplate mechanics, though it WAS after my strip that the gun malfed....anyway, I am blaming someone else and declaring myself a victim.

Your email address is in your sig line, if I find I need another trigger lever, I will drop you an email.

Thank you again!

Don, I am glad to hear you are on your way to getting your Luger working properly. Your nice photo work, your narrative and the advice from others was helpful to me. As a new Luger owner myself, I have learned so much from all the experienced and knowledgeable folks on this forum that are so willing to share with us newbies. What a swell bunch.

From yet another Don (aka Eugen)

Hey, Don, fiddley bits, fiddley bits, fiddley bits, fiddley bits, fiddley bits, fiddley bits, fiddley bits!!! LOL
