Sig 232 vs. Sauer 38H decocker structure.

[Ignition Override]

My Sauer was dropped off yesterday at the experienced gun smith, because the decocker will usually cock a hammer into the SA position,
but Won't lower a cocked hammer. The lever then has no resistance.

Out of curiosity, a photo of the components in this area of the Sauer seems to indicate a fairly complex internal structure.

Is the design of the components all around the decocker spring in modern Sig 230/232 very similar to this gun which basically "fathered" these modern types?
I told the gunsmith that hopefully they are about the same.

Both guns are pretty complex, as is typical of German engineering. Functionally, the decocking systems do the same job, but they are different in detail, so expertise in one would not necessarily mean knowledge of the other.
