Hi all,
I'll try to respond to your replies as best I can.
1- With regards to the problem being the magazine I bought some Remington 9mm Luger .115gr rounds and they worked perfectly after first removing the firing pin. I measured both the snap cap and the live round as best I could (I don't have access to precision measuring tools) and found that the snap cap is a tiny bit thicker. The length is identical.
2- I didn't plan on using this gun on the firing range since it is in a collectable condition and didn't want to take any chances with it. But now I might just fire off a clip or two just to make sure everything is working fine.
3 - I will order the MecGar magazine and use that for the firing test.
Hopefully, I covered your replies and I want to thank all of you for your valuable inputs.
