Just a note. This gun has an unrelieved sear bar, and as such would not allow you to open the toggle if the safety is ON. This is not a problem, just a heads up so you don't think something is wrong with it if you buy it.

There were military orders to modify all such Luger sears, but somehow, this one avoided the armory refurbishing and modification... probably got captured. It is hard to see in your current photographs, but it looks like this gun was manufactured without a holdopen device, and it was added later. Can I see a good close up of the right side of the gun from the trigger guard back to the toggle knob? I might be able to tell better.
