not ejecting shells
 

Would anyone have any idea why my Luger wouldn't be ejecting its shells?

Sounds like two possibilities to me.

1. The tip of the ejector may be broken off...

2. Very underpowered ammunition (Fiocchi?)

Are they stovepiping? or just never leaving the chamber?

If you load only a single round in the magazine, does the toggle lock back when the shot is fired?

John:

Also extractor (not ejector) spring may be too weak.

Sieger, I persume that you mean the EXTRACTOR spring, as the EJECTOR is spring steel and does not require a separate spring. What model Swiss are we talking about? I do have some unused Swiss marked M29 ejectors in stock, if required. hellerarms@webtv.net

It is Fiocchi ammunition. Is Fiocchi known for being underpowdered? It is 93 gr. I was wondering if it was week ammunition becuase the toggle doesn't seem to be moving much at all. A few times it started to eject the empty shell but it wouldn't completely eject and the toggle would catch the empty.

Hi:

I've heard a lot of complaints regarding the power of the Fiocchi ammo.

I've always had excellent luck with the Finnish military ammo sold by Samco of Miami Florida. Please see their website for details.

Thanks a lot. I will look into that.
