Hi Chris,

"Breech Block Slap" is the occurrence of the breech block's "slapping" against the inside, rear of the grip frame when firing. If you purchase Gerard Henrotin's Luger Mechanical Function ebook, there is an informative section about it, and the evidence it leaves within the mechanism. It goes hand-in-hand with the marks left on the outside, rear of the frame, where the "duck tail" of the rear toggle bottoms at the back of the frame when the ammunition is too powerful.

Thanks, that makes sense.
