You cannot do that with an assembled Luger.

With a loaded upper part it is true. But either it can be handy, if you do it on purpose (perfectly safe by the way). Or if done unintentionally one has to be a total klutz to disassemble a loaded pistol that has a loaded chamber indicator to begin with.
