Eugene,
Decocking the Luger is incredibly easy. As you remove the snap cap, lower the toggle slowly by hand (do not just let it snap back into battery). This way the sear does not engage the striker and the gun will not be cocked. As I am sure you are aware, this procedure should be performed with an empty magazine or with the magazine out of the gun. Sorry to state the obvious but it never hurts to emphasize safety.
Ron
