1. the small band of spring steel you refer too is a magazine safety, a police device/order. It keeps the gun from firing a round in the chamber with the the gun disassembled into the top and bottom units, why?? really didn't need it. Sort of a safety device should there be a round in the chamber and the top part of the gun taken of the frame. You know on the Luger you can fire with the barrel/reciever unit while apart/off of the frame
2. The second item is a trigger safety, sound like yours, along with most trigger safetys encountered, is cut. It would have a double fold of the safety behind the trigger. It was too keep the gun from firing with the mag out of the gun...hope it is all not clear or just about a clear as mud???
