Hi everybody

A week ago I became a proud owner off a 1920 commercia Luger that my dad had owned before me .Looking it over it seams to be fine except the blueing has worn off pretty badly.
Is there a safety check tutorial somewhere. This gun is almost 100 years old an might not been shot in the past 40. And before starting to shot it it would be nice to check is it functioning correctly.

Especially I noted that the toggle looses spring tension after you pull it over the striker arming threshold . Then the toggle can be moved up and down a half a inch about without eany spring tension . Is this normal ?

Thanks in advance for your help.
