I don't think the entire powder load blows back with a pierced primer...but I don't know for sure.
The grooved firing pin that was a production feature later than this gun was designed for just that purpose, to vent the gases. I am sure this was not a factory "stopgap" modification as I know of no other Luger, Navy or otherwise, with this modification.
