I was looking at a 1918 mauser manufactured P08 yesterday and noticed that above the trigger bar on the left side of the receiver there was a small flat metal strip or spring riveted (or so it appeared) to the receiver and extending forward above the trigger (takedown) plate. I know I've seen this before, but I can't for the life of me remember what this little spring strip is for. Can someone please refresh my failing memory?

Thanks!!! JD
