Well, have had both of the guns apart again, cleaned them completely again, and I purchased two OEM mags for my Stoeger Lugers - the new mags locked into the magwell a lot more securely and reliably than the mags that came with the gun, and the mag springs in the new mags looked a lot more robust than the springs in the old mags.
But, even with the new mags, I'm still seeing two types of jams \ failures - 1) the rounds are failing to get out of the magazine and into the chamber reliably, and 2) FTE problems.
For #1, my non-expert opinion after observing the gun working, is that the rounds are not being presented from the magazine to the chamber correctly - maybe it's needing the feed lips adjusted - I am seeing mainly two types of jams here - the rounds not even getting out of the magazine and into the chamber, and the other scenario is where the rounds get almost al the way into the chamber but I have to tap the top of the toggle to get the gun to go fully into battery.
For #2, I've cleaned the barrel with several differetn brushes and solvents, but I plan on trying to polish the chamber area to eliminate any potential issues with the chamber holding on to the rounds and causing ejection problems.
Any suggestions at this point?
