Hi,

The first usual failure point would be where the rear of the toggle link (holding the firing pin retainer) slaps the rear frame abutment. Is this the failure you are describing?

This slapping, eventually, causes these parts to fail, wounding the Luger, permanently.

With hot ammo, you can actually feel this slap in the web of your hand, as it can be very painful.
