Luger Shooting - Page 2

You should be able to fix it yourself, Eric! These old ones had the trigger spring in a recess in the wood stock, if I recall. A substitute sprind and maybe the bar the trigger pivots on is all that is needed.
It is also nice that the older rifles can be taken apart via screws. The later rifles were completely riveted together.

Some wood issues also! Any suggestions on wood glue!

Elmer's and a vice should do very nicely in this case.

Just make sure the area to be joined is as clean and dry as you can make it... before you glue! Then clamp the items as tight as you can and wait at least twice as long as the glue recommends before you release the clamps.
