Ted,


This started with someone saying that commercial ammo is made to international standards and any malfunxtion is the guns problem. NOT TRUE. I am saying the "standard" is designed to shoot in all guns on the market today, The Luger is on the high end of the design standard and a 100% function is not a consideration. If you bought a 57 Vette and it woun't light the tires for 100 yards - don't blame the car untill you use the 100 octane fuel it was designed to use. The Luger is a heavy duty design and for reliable use needs the ammo it was designed for. Don't believe me - go out and buy a box of Italian ammo and tell me how happy you are with your guns performance. That ammo is built to the so called international standards and its data is used by the propleeant manufactures for reload recommendations. They didn't build 8,000,000 guns because it was a "jammer". Remember the Broom was a jammer until it got the Luger cartage design - needed more juice.

Just a thought.
