Tim,

Also take a look at your magazine release catch. If it's badly worn, it won't hold the magazine in the right position, allowing it to hang in the pistol a little too low, thus creating feeding problems.

The big problem with recoil springs is that a spring which is too stiff will produce results that are similar to those of a spring which is too weak.

Indeed, contrary to what most say and think, the Luger likes long and spicey 9mm rounds. Winchester and Sellier & Bellot are the best commercially available rounds.
