Take the hold open out, clean it and the slot it fits in well; lube; check for free movement.

The little spring may be bent, weak, or broken also if you do not find it "stick" in operation.

Not to bad for these old eyes and Luger sights

When shooting a Luger in correct, good condition, if the shooter does his/her part, the resultant target usually is quite impressive. It is hard to argue with your results. I am going to assume that your "new Luger" has put a large smile on your face!! Enjoy
