Eugen,

As to the "dent" in your spent brass, my Mauser Parabellum does the exact same thing routinely. It is apparently quite common with these Lugers. Occasionally one of my P08s will dent some 9mm brass, but none of the 30 Luger guns will do it. I am a handloader, so was interested in the why, and realized the brass was striking the left barrel extension on the way out, producing the dent. The brass is still reloadable, and I chose not to try and modify the extractor or ejector on the Parabellum. It is no big thing, and no cause for alarm. Shoot it and enjoy it!!
