New Acquisition,1940-42

Yes I cleaned it completely. I believe the Shadow is close to the mark as I traded the sideplate for one off my Krieghoff and it worked much better. I believe the arm that interacts with the locking lever is too thick. It is 8 thousands thicker than the Krieghoff and the locking lever is way too tight. This might be pushing the connecting rod too close to the sear bar. It feels like the pistol has had a trigger job but I think this is a result of the sear bar being partially pushed in. I have to wonder why it does not go full auto? Jerry Burney
