Losing a "slide" on a luger would be really amazing- since it does not have one.

You're being a little harsh there Don, we know what he meant. I think that's the one where the frame ear broke.

Any pistol can "break"; a luger is no more nor no less prone to break than any other.

I think a 100 year old Luger is somewhat more prone to breaking than your average 100 year old Colt or S&W revolver due to having more, smaller moving parts subjected to relatively violent motion and high forces. Same with a 1911... the parts are fewer, bigger and tougher, and the design does not involve a relatively fragile toggle assembly slamming into a frame ear.
