luger feeding problem

Check and see if there is dirt in the hold-open well, or if there is damage to the spring. Since your pistol is made up from parts from multiple guns, there might be a problem requiring hand fitting of the hold open.

I am learning a lot today about this gun lol i managed to take out the assembly the spring appears to be fine or at least looks similar to what the others i searched looked like. fiddled with it some and it pushes the same distance up (the bolt hold open) regardless if i bent it with more of an angle or not (bent it back to original)

the mag i have is slightly bent on the button attached to the follower which i think may be pushing it slightly higher than normal
