Looking for advice - S/42

I can't help but think that the "spongey" trigger feel may be related to some degree anyway to the fact that the trigger plate does not seem to be original to the gun. Did your dis/reassembly have any effect on the trigger pull? In any case, as David pointed out, if all the parts are present and the pistol is assembled correctly you should be able to **** and dry fire it. Since it dry fired before you dis/reassembled it, I would repeat the process when you have plenty of time and interruptions can be minimized (I know ... dream on, right)? See if anything changes. Keep in mind that you shouldn't have to force anything during the process. Lugers fit together like hand-in-glove. If anything seems to need excessive muscle to go together, stop and back up because something is wrong. Pictures would be great. It has happened in the past that if a person in need of assistance posts their location another Forum member in the area may offer to swing by and take a look.
