skip, skip, down, didn't read anything else

So, lets ask, who is Smith?

Not use FMJ - why?

Use one mag - why?

Sounds like you're limiting yourself for reasons I can't figure out...

Ammo underpower - ammo overpowered - its a fine line, +P is crazy - underpowered will cause problems.

The different weights will cause issues with slowing the toggle and upping the pressures - but not always making the gun work different. I think you need to settle on a few normal rounds, like winchester white box and remington - pick one FMJ and see how it works. Or is it you are not really in California and can't just pick up ammo of your choosing?

a magazine can be a major problem, but not firing FMJ, what are you wanting this pistol to do?
