I got my extractor so I took out the 1900 Luger today. The new manufactured Lugerman extractor fit perfectly,

worked perfectly, and looked perfect.

I had two different brands of ammo, PPU and Fiocchi "Heritage". The Fiocchi has a shorter overall length

than the PPU, but worked perfectly in both the magazine that came with the pistol and the Triple K magazine

I was able to modify to fit in the very early 1900 frame. The PPU ammo worked fine in the original magazine,

but the breach did not close completely on the fourth round with the Triple K magazine. A slight push with my

left thumb was enough to close the breach.

Ejection was to the right slightly and back about 7 feet. The Fiocchi brass was grouped close together, the PPU

more spread out.

The groups with both types of ammo were about 4 inches high at 25 yards. Group size was not that great, I will

blame it on not being used to the trigger pull yet.

All in all, a 123 year old pistol made up from totally miss-matched parts worked almost perfectly after the

replacement of one part.

I'm pleased. Now to get used to that trigger.
