That would be an excellent 'field expedient' repair, but maybe not for long term use. 3/32" is .0938" and the Luger blueprint calls for 2.5mm rod = .0984". ~.004" doesn't sound like much but it's that much more slack in the trigger chain. Pin inside trigger lever = .004"; pin inside trigger plate is another .004". So that's .008" slack - the thickness of two sheets of ruled notebook paper.

You're shooting a slacker! (Back To The Future II!)
