Thank you for the illustration. I just checked my original compared to my reproduction breechblock, and see what you are talking about. I have to admit that I had never noticed it before. I had put a light polish on the lower lip of my original breechblock to aid in feeding, so it was tough to see everything clearly for the comparison.
Perhaps I am just lucky with my reproduction breechblock(which usually does not happen to me), for it has functioned every bit as reliably as my original. So much so, that I have entertained the thought of purchasing another to have as a spare. They are a bit over sized, but you, like myself, were able to fit it to the barrel extension.
I will definitely be interested in your future approach and results in an attempt to produce a 100% reliable Luger.
