Ron, In another thread I was discussing this very same thing and came to the conclusion that it is possible to swivel down the locking bolt without pushing the cannon back. At least it was on one pistol I tried it on. I have always done it by pushing the muzzle on a table like you say but ...have you ever tried it without pushing the pistol out of battery?
If I get time I will try it on another Luger...
OK..I thought I knew a lot about the Luger but you can still learn ..The locking bolt, if not damaged is blocked from turning by the stud on the bottom of the barrel. When pushed back out of battery it is released to turn downwards.
BUT! Dosen't this mean that during fireing the locking bolt could be unlocked on each cycle? The window would be brief but it is there...
