Hi Eugen,
Wonderful story.... but I will still wait until that shooter becomes available. If I went ahead and shot my 1917 DWM and....... well- I don't want to think about that. In the meantime, I'm having fun learning more from this forum, and from personal chats with the Luger experts... great fun!

The last photo shows the rear of the toggle train where it slams back against the metal surface just below. Seems to be more scored than others I have seen. Does this mean the toggle train has recoiled with more than the intended force? I do not plan on firing this gun... so no worries, I'm trying to learn what is OK and what is not.

Thanks,
