Replacing a numbered part can be rather difficult. If I remember correctly, the Swiss Luger triggers like your W+F 06 may have slightly different dimensions than those made for other Lugers.

If I understand your post correctly, the pin that normally extends from the right of the trigger into the frame is broken off? You have been able to recover the pin and now have both the trigger and the small broken off piece?

This broken piece would be perhaps 3mm in diameter and about the same length with a rounded off end? It, like the trigger, would be golden in color (strawed)?

If this is all true, I think that the best approach might be to have it welded back together by someone specializing in restoring firearm parts. We just had a post about repair of a recoil spring guide over on the other Luger forum at:

Your repair may be in the same class of work, requiring specialized welding equipment.

Your post has me wondering what kind of event would have caused breakage of a trigger at this place... There usually isn't that much pressure possible on a trigger, and the trigger plate on the left side could logically have given way before the trigger itself sheared off...
