Did you push the barrel back before trying to move the take down lever?

Yep I did that during disassembly

The difficulty happened upon reassembly where I really had to muscle the take down lever back into place.

I did learn a trick, if I have an empty magazine inserted it will hold the toggle back and make the whole proccess much easier

Op, is your Luger numbers matching? The reason I ask is that a non numbers matching firearm may have fitment issues that may effect normal operations. Further, varying degrees of cleanliness, dryness and variations of degree and type of lubrication can change the "feel" of part operations.

Except for the side plate everything else appears to match on it
