Personally, unless there was an issue in not striking the primer form the firing pin, I wouldn't worry about getting it out. Just squirt some WD-40 in there to keep it from gumming up

Agreed.

I'm sure it is just me, but at my arm's length I have a terrible time using that tiny V rear sight, and then once I center the front sight it disappears into a fuzz. I may have to try on some modified glasses to focus at arm's length. The Patridge sights do seem to make life easier, but I hate to deviate so far from original Luger pattern.
But if it was easy I guess everybody'd be doing it.

Guns & Ammo February Article Off The Press

Short, but favorable Article, by Pat Sweeny, on Lugerman's 1907 recreations.

He as impressed with the basic price $5,795 and the pistol's shootability with various ammo selections.

Good show!!

I, too, enjoyed the referenced article about Lugerman's .45acp Luger. Would have enjoyed it more with a cover pic, and specific group measurements with different ammo. Anyway, it was some reward for this amazing accomplishment!
