"Shooting with a weak take down lever/spring is kind of an experience. The pistol will dismantle itself after recoil, spreading side plate, barrel assembly and one's self esteem around the range."
And if you are very lucky, none of the parts will fall on the wrong side of the firing line...
"I've noticed while browsing this site I have seen a few Lugers that have unmatched side plates with the #66 on them. Mine also has the #66 on it...
There are possible explanations for the 66 on the side plate. We would need a much more complete description of the mark, any other marks on the sideplate, its location in order to hazard a useful guess. A photo would be much more useful.
