Eric,
Not at all... I was just trying to describe how the mechanism works. As I think about it, I'm not entirely correct in my first post. Assuming no plunger... During recoil, you'd feel as the firing pin passed the sear. With the trigger pressure held, the sear would not engage the firing pin as it returned to battery. When the breech block went back into battery, it would be carrying the firing pin in the forward position under it's spring tension. That might, or might not, be enough of a strike to ignite the primer. I've read that there were a couple of designs patented that converted a Luger to full auto. Haven't studied the mechanisms. Marc
