What breaks in a Luger?

Terry Tiell · 08-30-2012, 12:34 PM

After replying in the thread about how many members own but never have fired their Luger's I'm wondering, what exactly would break that would be a numbered part that people are so afraid to fire their Lugers? Replacing springs shouldn't be an issue cause they're not numbered right? For the life of me I can not understand what parts are prone to breaking the Luger seems pretty sturdy to me but then I am FAR from an expert.

So what parts on the Luger are so prone to breakage that people are afraid to fire them? What should I watch for/expect to have break in my Luger that I'll have to replace with a different numbered piece?
