My son-in-law who is now deceased bought several Lugers but finally sold all but one. He gave that to me to keep and enjoy and then give to my daughter when I was ready. It is cosmetically in excellent condition but has a big problem. After three or four shots it goes fully automatic which gave me a big surprise when I tried to shoot it.
I took it to a gunsmith who has lots of experience but not with Lugers. He
says the internal parts still look like new. He has disassembled it and reassembled it several times with the same result. He is trying to find a new sear to try but having no luck. Most parts that you find are used.
Does anyone have any experience with that type of problem or know a source for parts. Any help would be appreciated.
