Hi Pete,
I was actually looking for a possible explanation of the drilled-through takedown lever when I found this.
A patent drawing showing a drilled-through lever and a fastening nut, used to secure the sideplate (for whatever wild reason) is shown in Goertz' book 'Die Pisole 08' (revised).
Sadly, the original patent appears to have gone missing. I wrote the German patent office and their reply was that it was no longer present...
