Thank you for such a great forum!! I have been a Colt 1903 and 1908 collector for many years but now I am venturing into the world of Lugers. The engineering is fascinating!

I was recently considering a 1920 Commercial alphabet in 30 Luger. The seller said that Western ammo always worked great but the Fiocchi was problematic and I would be spending a lot of time clearing rounds. Is this typical or does the gun need time at a gunsmith?

Question number two-Do you reloaders out there put a few more grains of powder in your ammo?

Question number three-since I am not a reloader, should I just keep my sights on a 9mm?

Three questions are enough for one day. I look forward to spending many more hours here!
Very best regards,

-Bill
