There is so much "wrong" with what the expert shop told you-
did you not complain about the ammo? That is at least "one" complaint! "Usually found at gun shows"- now there is a glowing recommendation and stamp of approval!

No big difference in Fiocchi and PP? He has never tried either, IMO. You have read the threads on the .30 luger ammo "problems" both here and on the other forum?

"Someone changed the spring"- maybe; but check out the spring sticky and you will see that DWM put the same spring in their .30 and 9mm luger pistols at times! Which is not to say your spring is the correct size/weight spring. To be sure buy a spring from Lugerdoc and install it.

European "hotter" ammo- like everything else- some is and some "ain't"! Since there is no current US mfg of .30 luger- his statement is meaningless in regard to your inquiry. Reloads and ammo in "un-remarkable" boxes doesn't count.

Please let us know how the Fiocchi works in your luger.
