New Guy with 1918 Erfurt Luger

Thanks. I didn't try actuating the hold open, but I was able to push the barrel down and get the take down lever down. Then the side-plate fell off and I was able to remove the front of the gun. I decided to stop at that point.

I googled 'Erfurt Luger' 'mec-gar magazine' and found they make them. Will the 8-rd mags sold by Midway work with this gun? If so, I'll just buy one and see if that solves the toggle back problem.
