On yours, most likely the latch and/or the spring was replaced in the past. Both parts were unnumbered on 1930, but inter-exchangability of parts on Mauser is poor, even for unnumbered ones.

Thanks for the link! Mine is shown below, on bottom, with pic from your link on top. I guess mine is OK then. I was concerned that it might have broken the tip of the spring off, but it appears unbroken.

Maybe just fatigued, after all these years...(I know that feeling!)...
