It is normal for a Luger trigger to have a long travel, and no two are the same. I once had a Luger--all matching--whose trigger pull was so long that I had to pull the trigger clear into contact with the frame before it would fire.

The Luger ejector is inlet into the right receiver extension, and so pushes the spent case toward the left out of the breechblock face. This causes the case mouth to strike the left receiver extension on its way out, denting--or at least marring--the case mouth.
