LUGER has Function Issues??

I'm Hoping it may be an easy Fix but I sure could use some help..

I received my missing Parts on Friday and promptly installed them.. An issues with the Trigger Bar Pin was quickly apparent and while I was able to get it to fit "O.K." I was not getting warm fuzzies as the Pin did not, nor would not go all the way through the second hole on the Sidplate.. Since I assume FLUSH would be correct I was way under that and in fact it barely went through to the other side at all, it is just too short..

However as LUCK would have it a LUGER Forum regular lives very close to me and he had 4 Original PINS in his stash.. We met at the Funshow and installed one of the original pins which BTW did in fact go through to the other side or FLUSH on the Sideplate.. At this point I'm pleased because missing another range trip with this psitol was really gonna blow...

Soo today after shooting Rilfes for a couple hours I put them away and headed to the Pistol range for the last Hot Range of the day. PERFECT or so I thought...
Unfortunately it was a bit dissapointing as although the Gun shoots great and is as accurate as I had hoped there is an issue I will have to look into?? My "ISSUE" popped up right away and am pretty much baffled by the cause??

Sights are regulated perfectly and hitting POA was no prob, Feeding, Extraction, Ejection all good..
BUT She only goes BANG once, not BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, etc..??
The best I could get was two or three consecutive firings without manualy cocking the striker by pulling the Toggle assy up slightly?? It "seems" for whatever reason the Striker is not Re-setting/Cocking? If/When you work the action (unloaded) and then pull the trigger it works normally everytime, but why it won't when actually shooting is a mystery to me??
I tried THREE mags and 4 Types of ammo, none seemed much better then the other? Hoping it is an easy fix, I just don't know? May be ammo related but again it's just a guess..

BTW ammo tried was Fed American Eagle 124 Gr FMJ, FIOCHI 115 FMJ, WINCHESTER NATO 115 FMJ ( I think?), and I even tried some UZI (IMI) 115 FMJ and it seemed to matter not at all what I used??

You LUGER Experts got any ideas, or advise.. I sure would appreciate the help..
