Hi guys. I joined here because I am having a problem, at least I think it's a problem, with my first P.08.
I bought a 1942 Mauser made Luger at an online vendor yesterday. Took possession today. All matching, beautiful pistol. I have never handled one before, but (uh-oh) watched a few youtube vids
The problem: I can't seem to **** it.
I have tried everything except loading it and trying to **** it. I've tried: safety off, safety on, mag in, mag out. Nothing I seem to do will actually **** the pistol. And I've found some vids and threads on de-cocking for storeage and not dry firing it, so I'm thinking something is wrong here and it's not some kind of safety thing. Right now it would be impossible for me to dry fire it.
Could there be something I am doing wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
