Default Luger Operation

Hi:


The Luger wasn't designed for so heavy a bullet, however, it certainly should cycle these, and easily.

Did you change the recoil spring? If so, what to?

This is commercial ammo, so it certainly should be "Hot" enough.

If you would have told us that the Luger ejected o.k, but wouldn't feed; I'd say that your ammo was so hot as to bounce the toggel back so quickly as to override the next round in the magazine.

The other alternative is ammo that is too weak, very weak, it would seem. This is possible but not so likely with commercial ammo.

Here is a really simple question. Will the Luger cycle with regular 124 grain store bought ammo?
