Thanks for all the the replies and info.

I guess I did not make myself clear about the fat and slim triggers. I am not referring to the width of the trigger or trigger guard, but to the area and shape of the side of the trigger. I am looking at two Luger triggers. One came from a 1940 42 Mauser and is an original part - it is fat. The other came from a 1914 Erfurt but is mismatched and I think is DWM - it is slim. There is an easily noticeable difference in the front to back dimension of the side of the triggers, especially near the bottom. Photos often do not show the trigger clearly because of the lighting but the slim one seems to show up in photos on DWM Lugers prior to the 1914 model and on Erfurt Lugers including the 1914 model. This was what I was asking about.
