Side plate and triger lever pin problem

It looks to me that most of the PO8s shown are DDR reworks. I find the E/su4 Simson assembled from left over WW1 Erfurt parts interesting. Your trigger lever problems are not uncommon on mismatched parts pistols. The loose trigger lever pin should be bent a bit downward so that it rubs against the inside of the side plate and has to be driven down with a punch to lock it in place. You'll find some more tips on the Forum, to adjusting your trigger lever, so that the disconnector plunger in the sear can move it out of the way to recock. If all else fails, you can alway sent it to me for a trigger job. TH
