Trigger not cocked after firing

Hi,

I recently got a '41 Mauser Luger.

Not having a clue about Lugers, I had it inspected by a gunsmith before firing. His opinion: "You got a great shooter. How much do you want for it?"

So... I felt like I got a decent gun for $400.00.

One problem: When I shoot, the first round fires and the next round is chambered properly, and the bolt is closed. But the trigger isn't cocked. If I lift the toggle about a quarter inch and then press it back down, the trigger will then fire the gun.

Any suggestions?? Sure would be nice to find there is an easy (safe) fix for this.

Note: Out of about 40 shots, the trigger was cocked only twice... so it does work occasionally.
