Default Nambu Typ 14, range report

Fired the old Nambu for the first time today. When it shoots, it shoots well - seemingly pretty accurate with soft recoil. But I only managed to send 12 rounds down range as it was a jam-O-matic, even though I put all new springs in it, blah, blah. One was a nasty failure to extract, that took 3 hands to unfarkle - my wife had to hold back on the bolt while I pressed the mag release and extracted the mag. I'm not going to worry about it too much as I really didn't buy it to shoot (much).

Ran about 35 rds through my Luger, which performed the best it ever has what with a new recoil spring in place. The only problem I had was an occasional FTF the last round in a magazine - particularly a newly acquired 7 rounder that FTF both times I used it. G.T. it was the "new" one that I sent with the Nambu mags.

In other news, the LGS just happened to have a Ruger MKIII in the version that I've been wanting - 6 inch "standard" barrel. Its now in "jail", waiting for 10 days for me to liberate it.
