Hi

Hermo I think that the reason why the change of the mainspring and the magazine spring did't do it, was because I installed the 36 Lb. mainspring, I thourght that the ammo I had (Sellier & Bellot FMJ 124 grs) was more weak than the original german ammo and therefore I installed the 36 Lb. mainspring and I therefore had problems because of the ammo is too hot to the 36 Lb. mainspring. My Luger is a G-date "liberated" from the Germans in 1945. I can't find the original right now, it is stored somewhere in with all my other stuff, because I moved last year, therefore I don't know the length of it.
