According to Gortz & Sturgess, the Reichswehr directed on 17 September, 1930, that the firing pins of all Lugers in inventory were to be modified with flutes by unit armorers. The work was to be completed by 30 September, 1931. All new Lugers purchased after 1930 were to have the fluted firing pins. Chapter 17, page 1116.
