I've never seen a hold-open fail so catastrophically.

I did. Once, luckily not my p.08.

Make that twice. Another one last year, to make things worse the broken part got wedged between the frame and the breech block locking it open, it took some work to get it dislodged. Not good in competition. Still not my P.08. I acquired the habit of removing it when shooting.
