Noch einmal

OK. Got assorted toggle train parts back from GT. Went to the range today. Was GFs b-day so she went with and brought her S&W Sigma.

It went about as I expected. The only CONSISTENT thing that did happen was that it didn't cycle correctly :evilgrin: Not once. Came close a few times but the bullet stuck on loading in (feed ramp issues)

The toggle train issues seem to be worked out however. Thanks GT! Fired about 100-rounds using a Mecgar and another new mag of different manufacture. I honestly figured it would operate like this after reading posts from Lugerdoc and others with these long barrels.

Anyway, my questions are:

1. I suppose I can try a lighter main spring. That might get it a lot closer.

OR

2. Thinking about rebarreling it. That is beyond my skill level. Thinking Navy barrel possibly and be done with it. I'll need a reference to either send it to or at least mail the receiver to if I decide this route.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks!

what the hell is a "Noch einmal "

Loosely translated "one more try/time" as a continuation to my other thread.

WOT, I could send you a cut down 15 coil spring to try @$15 + $5 S&H, which is what I've used in the past on these 16" barrelled specials, but with that light a spring, your toggle may not close all the way when reloading, basically making your luger a single shot. I've given up installing these long barrels, as much to difficult to get working right. I'd be happy to install a shorter barrel in your shooter, if that's what you decide to do. TH

Heh heh yeah, I basically did the single shot thing yesterday. It's not SO bad, but what's the point really. Please PM me with details, options and prices when you get a chance.

Also, do I need to use an FFL when shipping the receiver/barrel?

Thanks!

NO, the frame is the part that must be handeled as a legal firearm part

worldoftone 11-23-2009 03:08 PM

OK thanks!
