First luger - won't work - need help!

Sounds like you have a worn takedown lever or sideplate that has been messed with. There should be NO movement of the sideplate away from the gun's receiver upon trigger pull or at any time for that matter.

Do not attempt to bend the "L" shaped trigger lever without first getting advice here! It is heat treated, brittle metal and will most likely snap if you try to bend it.
