Kansas City Area Smith?
Does anyone know a good luger smith in the Kansas City area? I recently had the ejector break on my 1916 DWM luger so I bought a replacement part that I believed to be original. I had to do a lot of hand fitting on the top edge to get it to move freely in the frame. But after it was installed it did not have enough spring tension to push the actual ejector face down far enough. I then heated the part with a torch and put more of a bow in it and it's working now but looks like hell. I have ordered a new ejector and am wanting to find someone more skilled than me to install it.
I'm stumped why I'm having so much trouble with this part as it seems simple enough. I just don't want to destroy or mar another 50 dollar part. Hopefully the first replacement I got was just out of spec somehow.
Thanks in advance.
