Hi Lewis
The LGM1 is an excellent rifle, it did indeed have a short run and it is an update on the long running previous model (I think LG-90?) with a different loading tap, trigger, and a few other mods, the LGM2 was little changed from the LGM1, the only significant difference I think was with a laminated stock on some versions, the LGM2 then continued for some while. I'm not aware of any problem. I suspect it was to reduce production cost. There is some history of the Walther SSP's on the Pilkgun site, Coaching and Info, 10p files.
Good shooting
Robin
