Interesting! This article gives some interesting history but I noticed the photographs do not match the engineering drawing.
The drawing specifies three spring pins however only two are evident in the photographs.
The design of the striker shown in the drawing is hollow with the striker spring contained inside however the photo appears to show a solid rod.
It does appear the drawing is dated much later than when the pistols were made.
Here is the article:
