toggle
 

hello all i have a question when toggle / breech lock is pulled all the way rearward should this stay open my luger only stays open 1/2 pulled is this a problem or normal i kind of remember my dad showing the gun fully cocked for some reason it wont stay open? any ideas?

sorry i posted this in the wrong spot it should have been under repair did not notice that category

Hi Tom,

The magazine has to be in place for the hold open to work. The magazine activates the hold open when fully inserted and locked in place.

Sometimes a non-matching magazine won't hold it open. Or if the HO spring is broken, it won't work.
