The toggle on your luger is from 1934-1939. The frame, which has an artillery notch, is from an artillery or an Erfurt from 1914-1918. They were never together originally. The number 73 on the toggles is a number matching the frame but in number only.In the luger numbering sequence the number 73 came up many times. One only needed to find a 73 toggle to go with the frame. It looks from your diagram that the trigger is number 16. Again, if so, a mismatch. For $ 1600 you could get a good collectible or two shooters. I am not trying to be a know it all. I do not consider myself to be a luger expertr. However after collecting them for 45+ years I hope I have obtained some knowledge. The forum is designed to help all of us learn , gain knowledge and hopefully avoid mistakes. I hope you accept my comments in this vein. My final comment if you can get your money back or a reduction in cost do it. Respectfully. Bill
