First post/First Luger/First problem

Yes, David. That sounds right. The firing pin is not staying back when the toggle comes forward.
But like I said, I am new to these. I am not sure if I am supposed to be doing something differently. I do not understand the mechanics yet and don't know anybody that has a Luger to mentor me.

It would be nice to know how exactly to release the toggle when the firearm is empty/unloaded. Do you have to drop the mag? For all I know dropping the mag prevents the firing pin from being able to be locked in a firing position...

If I understood the mechanics, then I could better access what might be going on.
