Default Re: 7,65X19

Hi


I have rebuilt a number of lugers,and mostly with heavyer oktagon barrels in order to get better balance.

We tried the 7,65x19 some years ago and discoverd a number of problems .

1. the cases often separated at the neck, leaving the neck in the chamber.

2. the preasure due to the low recoilimpulse with the low weight bullet had to be kept high in order to have the gun to cycle.

The preasure actually got that high that the fork on this DWM luger got bent downwards.

The 7,65x19 might work if you have a weak recoilspring and low barrelweigth, but i belives it's better to use 7,65 para or even better 9x19.
